Workshops typically run between 90 minutes and 3 hours, depending on the project and skill level.

All materials, tools, and instruction are provided. Our workshops are beginner-friendly and designed to help you learn a new skill, connect with others, and leave with a completed project.

Most workshops require a minimum of 4 participants. If the minimum enrollment is not met, the workshop may be rescheduled or canceled. Registered guests will be notified and receive a full refund.

Workshop pricing varies by project, materials, and duration. Most classes range from $35–$125 per person. Private events and group bookings are also available.

Slow Craft workshops are led by founder Cynthia McMullen, a textile professional with over 20 years of experience in product development, fabric innovation, and creative education. Cynthia creates welcoming, hands-on experiences that help beginners build confidence and enjoy the creative process.

No experience is necessary. Most workshops are designed for beginners, and all instruction is provided step-by-step.

Workshop registrations are non-refundable. If you cannot attend, please contact us at least 3 days before the event to request a transfer. For full details, please review our Workshop Policies.

Yes! We offer private workshops for birthdays, team-building events, book clubs, libraries, and community groups. Contact us to discuss options and pricing.

Most public workshops are designed for adults and teens. Some projects, like the Dahlia Wreath, are open to ages 12+. We also run teen and kids’ programs through libraries and community partners, which are listed on our Workshops page. Each event listing shows its age range. Planning a family or school event? We’d love to create something for your group. Contact us.

For most workshops, everything is provided. Just bring yourself. A few book-based workshops ask you to bring your own book:

• Bedazzled Books: any hardcover or paperback you’d love to transform.

• Stenciled Pages: a hardcover or paperback about 300+ pages thick, since thicker books give you more edge to paint. It can be multiple books as well.

When a workshop is hosted at a bookstore, you can usually pick up a new book there before class. Each listing says exactly what to bring.

Comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting a little messy. Dye, paint and ink workshops can leave marks, and we’ll let you know if old shirt is a good idea. We provide aprons for the more messy workshops.
