Fidalgo Makers Guild

Private Events

For birthdays, bachelorette weekends, corporate offsites, showers, and reunions, we build a private session around real technique: wax carving, copper-foil glasswork, wet-felting, sashiko mending. Your group goes home with something they made.

What We Offer

Studio Buyout

Reserve any open-enrollment workshop exclusively for your group. One instructor, one technique, the full Founding Curriculum to choose from: wet-felted wall art, wreath making, terrarium building, mosaic, textile printing, sashiko mending, pin loom weaving, or a solid perfume bar.

Any group size · 1.5–2.5 hours

Premium Experience

Lost-Wax Jewelry Carving or Stained Glass Suncatchers: our two highest-skill offerings, capped small for real individualized instruction. Booked as a full exclusive buyout rather than open enrollment. Sharp tools, a soldering iron melting lead into the copper-foil joins, and a finished piece worth the extra attention.

Capped at 6–8 guests

Off-Site & Partner Venue

We'll bring the Guild to your event space: a winery, a retreat venue, your office. Materials travel, setup and teardown are ours to handle, and the technique stays the same wherever the tables go.

Delivery fee added to quote · Neighboring island bookings subject to ferry availability
