What we’re about
Do you want to learn new DIY skills? Maybe you enjoy coloring or painting, needlework, costuming or cosplay, woodworking or woodburning... This is a safe space for LGBTQ+ folx and allies to organize get-togethers around creating, crafting, and learning new skills.
I really want to keep this group as free and accessible as possible, so I will not ask for any sort of membership fees. If we're using supplies that are costly, I may ask for a sliding scale, pay as you can OR bring your own supplies setup. We will offer occasional paid workshops, because folks who share their time and expertise to teach us skills should be paid for their time. If you want to chip in for supplies, please use my venmo: @StephEldridge89
Some potential topics on the list:
sewing/hemming, origami, woodburning, cross stitch, taking plant cuttings for propagation, painting mini figurines (ex: for D&D or tabletop games), creating foam armor for cosplay, knitting and crochet, whittling/carving/engraving wood, watercolor painting, linoleum block printing, shibori and tie-dying clothing/fabric, repurposing cigar boxes into guitars or functional art, general canvas painting - mixed media, learning basic coding/programming, 3D modeling and printing, and more!
