Unfortunately not. Please bring a snack as we’re not always confident that there is food available to purchase near each workshop’s location.

Check your workshop registration in your account. Workshops can vary from 5.5 hours to two 3-hour sessions.

Just yourself, and anything you’d usually leave the house with!
