Craft Workshops New York

WEDNESDAY In-person Crafting and Happy Hour

A lot of folks asked for a second monthly meeting, so here it is! Join us on the last Wednesday of every month for our in-person fiber arts meet up! Whether you knit, crochet, felt, sew, cross-stitch, or embroider, come by, grab a drink or a snack, and share your creations! We meet in the food hall at Brookfield Place (230 Vesey St) in Tribeca. We usually have a sign on the table so you can find us.

Production Workshop

[Please RSVP](https://learn.soundcollective.com/courses/production-basics-free-workshop/) to ensure you will be able to participate in this free workshop. [Production Basics](https://learn.soundcollective.com/courses/production-basics-free-workshop/) is a free, hands-on 2-hour workshop that gives you a real introduction to making music from scratch. Hosted in our NYC studios, the session focuses on one core skill: building your first groove and loop. A professional producer walks you through how a beat actually comes together, from picking sounds to laying down patterns to shaping an idea into something that sounds like a track. ​This is built to give you an honest read on whether music production is a craft you want to pursue further. Small-group format with guided instruction and open practice time. No DAW experience or prerequisites required. However, [RSVP is required.](https://learn.soundcollective.com/courses/production-basics-free-workshop/) Workstations are available on a **first-come, first-served basis**, so we recommend arriving early to secure a spot. If all workstations are taken by the time you arrive, you’re still more than welcome to join the session, observe, and jump on the gear during open practice time!

Other members join, you meet in real life, and the community grows from there. Most people come on their own, so don't worry if you don't know anyone yet. Our motto is simple: **every person welcomes every other person.** ☺️ And the fun doesn't have to end when the event does. Meet people here, then join the dinners, walks, drinks, coffee runs, and other hangouts they create afterward. Or start your own and invite everyone along. 💛 Bunch is completely free. Our mission is to make it easier for people to actually spend time together, without putting human connection behind a price tag. 📲 **RSVP on Bunch to join the Bunch group and chat with everyone before the event.** **Start Bunching:** [https://www.letsbunch.com](https://www.letsbunch.com/) See you there! 🎨💛 Aleksandra Founder of Bunch

Crafting Together on the LES

Bring whatever you have been working on or wanted to work on, but haven't had the chance. I have some paint-by-numbers and crocheting I would like to get done this Fall. Grab a coffee or snack and let's sit and craft together at Essex Market. You can work quietly or we can chat--whatever you feel comfortable with! I figured this way I can block out time to ACTUALLY get some art done. We will be in the mezzanine seating area. I can provide my phone number the day of.
