Makers Jam Weekend- Whatever You're Working On Is Welcome
The Creative Jam
Lake George, NY 12845
How to get there
Whatever You're Working On Is Welcome
Have a quilt waiting patiently in a closet? A diamond painting that's been riding around in your car? A crochet project living in a tote bag? Scrapbook supplies and boxes of photos that need attention? A journal, coloring book, sewing machine, paint set, or project you've been meaning to get back to? This retreat is for you.
Join us for 25 hours of dedicated creative time surrounded by other makers, artists, crafters, and creative humans who understand that sometimes the hardest part is simply making the time. This is an easy way to make new creative friends, or hang out with already made friends! Everyone is friendly and welcoming- so yes, you can come alone- and you will fit right in!
Bring whatever you're working on. Sewing*, quilting, diamond art, scrapbooking, painting, crochet, knitting, felting, coloring, journaling, bookbinding, paper crafts, and more are all welcome.
No classes. No deadlines. No pressure. And, we feed you all weekend long! That's right, it's catered!
Just a full weekend to spread out, settle in, make progress, and enjoy the company of people who understand why your project pile may be growing faster than it's shrinking.
**If you are planning to sew, let us know ASAP so we can get our irons and cutting stations ready (no personal irons can be used due to our electrical set up)
