Neon Heron Craft Community December Meetup

Join us for a welcoming, hands-on crafting event for adults who want to make time for creativity and community. ***Past attendees, please note: this time we're meeting on a Monday!

Use our materials or bring your own project to work on in the company of others! We have supplies for embroidery, crochet, knitting, jewelry design, collage, and more. Your ticket allows you to engage with whatever materials you like!

While there’s no set project or instructor for these meetups, we offer a supportive, inclusive environment where we help each other, share ideas and enjoy the creative process together.

We will meet at BAYarts in the Sullivan Family Gallery (the green Victorian building), located at 28795 Lake Road in Bay Village, Ohio.

Your ticket covers the cost of any materials you'd like to use during our meetup, and 15% of all sales will be donated to the BAYarts Annual Fund to help empower creativity all year long.

Neon Heron Craft Community was developed as a master’s thesis project by Marissa Siebert, a candidate in the MA Creative Business Leadership program at Savannah College of Art and Design. The project explored how open-ended studio experiences and creative community spaces can help adults build confidence and connection through crafting.

In the summer of 2025, Neon Heron Craft Community completed its pilot season with six open-ended crafting meetups. In addition to creating with over 70 unique individuals, we also raised $500 for the BAYarts Sensory Garden project.

Important details:

• These events are adults only. While we love kids, this project is specifically exploring adult crafting habits.
• You do not need to bring your own materials -- we have plenty of supplies to explore! However, some guests do prefer to work on their own projects from home and that's ok, too.
