🌹 YOU SPOKE. I LISTENED. AND WE'RE BUILDING SOMETHING AWESOME!

A while back, I started asking what kinds of workshops you'd like to see, where you'd like to see them, and what days worked best for everyone.

And you gave me some great feedback!

So I've been doing some rearranging, experimenting, and building behind the scenes to make these workshops more accessible to our community.

📍 Workshops in BOTH Farmington and Aztec!
📅 More weekend options (because weekdays don't work for everyone!)
🎨 Hands-on art workshops for curious makers
💻 Web and digital workshops for small businesses and anyone ready to learn something new

And now... here's our NOVEMBER LINEUP! 🎉

From building sensory fidgets and experimenting with light and shadow to creating fabric art and learning how to build a better online presence, there's a little something for all kinds of curious minds.

Every workshop is a chance to try something new, learn a skill, make a mess (sometimes 😂), and connect with other people in our community.

✨ And we're just getting started! December has some exciting things coming, too, including new creative workshops and hands-on website-building classes!

Take a look at the calendar, find something that catches your eye, and come build with me!

Can't make these dates? Let the workshop come to you! 🌹

Rusted Rose Studios also offers private craft parties, group workshops, and custom creative experiences. Gather your friends, family, coworkers, or favorite group of weirdos, and let's build something together!

Still prefer a public workshop? Tell me what days and times work best for you. Your feedback helps shape what comes next!

And if you know someone who'd enjoy one of these workshops, sharing this post helps more than you know. ❤️

The artwork is only half the story. Build a dimensional canvas, move the light, and watch the shadows stretch, shift, and transform the piece.
