Nature & Sustainability Club Workshop: Stitching & Mending for Decoration with Arielle Toelke

In this two-hour workshop on Wednesday April 30 at 6:30pm we will learn basic sewing stitches that can be used for mending, repairing, and embellishing. No prior sewing experience needed. We will start by creating a sampler of stitches. Next we will create simple artworks to stitch on fabric that can be used to decorate or mend clothing or to be made into textile artworks. In addition to mending, stained clothing can be upcycled by hiding flaws with embroidery.

Participants can bring items they wish to mend, but it is not necessary. All materials are supplied and everyone will leave with a stitch guide, embroidery hoop, and a stitched artwork.

No sewing experience required.

Limited to 12 attendees.

$80.00 – $100.00

Writing Club

Looking for accountability on your writing project? We're here to support that! Once monthly we will be dedicating space and time for writing in the Gallery. We'll use the first hour for writing, followed by discussion. If you're interested in turning your thoughts into words–but struggle to put pen to paper–these 'butt in seat' accountability sessions are a great way to get started!

For Yellow Studio Members. RSVP required.

Intro to Encaustic Photography Workshop with Rebecca Dunn

This beginner's Encaustic Photography Workshop is a great introduction if you have never worked with encaustic wax before or if you’ve worked with wax but haven’t tried incorporating photos into your work.

During Rebecca Dunn's, 2.5 hour, hands on workshop, each participant will have time to work on 3 of their own photographs that have been mounted to 5 x 7” wood panels.  The workshop will focus on prepping your photos properly, layering the wax on, adding color, and techniques for making texture, as well as where to find materials.

Sold Out $52.00 – $65.00

Networking Club – Behind the Brand: Navigating the Direct-to-Consumer Landscape

This community is made up of so many small businesses that we all love and adore - many that operate online and we can’t wait for them to host a pop-up or find them at a local fair or farmers market!

On Tuesday May 20 at 7pm, we’re bringing some of those women together to give us a peak behind the curtain to understand what really goes into running an direct-to-consumer business - the unique challenges, opportunities and exciting moments!

An engaging evening for entrepreneurs, aspiring business owners or anyone from the community who supports these (or any) small business!

This event is free for Yellow Studio Members and $20 for non-members.

Writing Club: Tools for Success – Media Training with Fran Hauser in Conversation with Lauren Schwarzfeld

Imagine you finally have your book out in the world and you're going on tour, or that you've been invited to talk about your work on your favorite podcast - are you ready? How do you prepare for an interview? What takes a mediocre interview to an amazing interview that gets thousands (millions?) of views? How do you ensure that you'll get invited back to talk about your second book? 

The Writing Club is excited to host Fran Hauser, who has not only done all of the above, but also regularly interviews writers and artists on her podcast, Bookbound, and elsewhere. Lauren Schwarzfeld will be moderating. Lauren recently produced a TEDx event where she coached speakers to engage and inspire. Fran and Lauren know what makes a successful interview and are ready to share.
