Autumn / Winter Art Farm class schedule



Nice Autumn weather make it easier to focus. Art Farm is a good place for kids and adults to be creative. We’ve planned some seasonal theme workshops, along with repeat classes. Please check them out! Do you have something else you would like to make? Our “One day handbuilding class” is open for you! No experience necessary. 





 One day group handbuilding classes 



You can make a unique handmade gift for somebody special that you would never be able to buy in the store. You can use your very own tableware for a get together. You can decorate your house with an art piece you made. It’s not only what you make that is special, but the experience itself will be priceless! A great activity for family and friends. There is no theme, just bring your ideas!
