At Crave Workshops, we celebrate unique voices. We teach experiences where we all start off with the same supplies, and our solutions end up completely different. We teach abstract methods with multiple outcomes. We encourage working on multiple pieces at the same time. We celebrate the diversity of thinking and the unique approaches to the same situation. We want you to express yourself. The goal is to showcase your unique vision and perspective on this wide beautiful world. No matter who you are and where you come from, we all have infinite creative potential.
We believe that making things by hand is an essential practice to staying mindful and inspired. We want people to have fun, connect with others and learn new things about themselves by making things with their hands.
“Making has always been my meditation, a relief to the stress of life and business and clients and deadlines. It was personal passion that I strove for every chance I could get. The classes and workshops I curated aim to create that peace and that meditation, the art of being in the moment. There’s nothing else you can think about when you are focused on marbling the perfect tote bag. It’s not about the tote bag, but about the experience of making. I want time to stand still, and have others experience the awe of making their new creation.”
“As someone confident in their distaste for making and crafting (unless its on a screen or in a kitchen), I was surprised by how much fun I had at Crave. The house is gorgeous, the spread was wonderful (props to the chef!), and spending a beautiful Saturday afternoon playing with vats of indigo ink was more enjoyable than I could have possibly imagined. Everyone in the group was genuinely excited to be there, hosts included. Although we all started with zero idea of what we were doing, the process itself was a blast. Not to mention the amazing final products (my room is now covered in Shibori). Thank you Crave!!”
