Get into the balloon-festival spirit with a colorful Girls’ Night Out project that’s almost as cheerful as a sky full of hot air balloons!

In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll learn the basics of paper quilling as you roll, shape, and arrange colorful paper strips to create your own dimensional hot air balloon. Choose the colors that make you happy—bright rainbow shades, moody jewel tones, soft pastels, or something completely your own.

Your finished balloon will be displayed in a rustic wooden frame, ready to take home and show off just in time for the Adirondack Balloon Festival.

No quilling experience is needed, and all materials—including the frame—are provided. Tools will be available to use during class, or you may add a take-home quilling tool set for $7 so you can keep the tiny-paper-swirling magic going at home.

As part of Girls’ Night Out, refreshments will be provided. Bring your Girls’ Night Out passport to receive your stamp—and if this is your first event, we’ll get you started with one.

Ticket Options

• Class with tools provided: $47
• Class plus take-home quilling tool set: $54

Come make something colorful, enjoy refreshments, add another stamp to your passport, and celebrate balloon season without having to wake up at an ungodly hour to chase a launch.
