Psst... you've been invited!

Word has it that a rather extraordinary secret society, The Merry Magic Makers, is gathering this holiday season. Its mission? To dream up a little more magic, make wonderfully curious creations, and prove that imagination can turn just about anything into something extraordinary.

And there's room for a few new members!

Join us for a festive afternoon of mystery, imagination, artmaking, and a little holiday mischief as mothers and daughters become honorary members of The Merry Magic Makers!

Upon arrival, each duo will receive a sealed envelope containing a secret creative mission. Perhaps you'll dream up a curious holiday creature, invent a delightfully ridiculous new tradition, create an enchanted object, or imagine something no one has ever seen before.

Then the real fun begins!

Explore a treasure trove of colorful papers, fabrics, ribbons, found objects, and other unexpected materials as you bring your ideas to life. Collage, sculpt, construct, embellish, experiment—and see where your imaginations take you.

There are no examples to copy, no right answers, and absolutely no requirement to be sensible!

This isn't your ordinary holiday craft class. It's a chance for mothers and daughters to step out of the everyday, dream together, and make a little magic of their own.
