Sessions include family-friendly events such as a Halloween Costume Party with games, pumpkin painting, and light refreshments, plus workshops where all materials are supplied for participants (for example, candle making and select kids’ ornament classes). Classes are designed to produce keepsake pieces that families can take home and display.

Booking is arranged per class and workshops cover seasonal themes throughout the year.
