WORKSHOPS
TEEN + ADULT
Saturday, November 7 | 11 AM–2 PM
A little brunch. A little making. A lovely way to spend a Saturday.
November’s Crafty Brunch is all about slowing down, gathering around the table, and creating something you’ll be excited to bring home.
This month, you’ll have two creative projects to choose from!
Tin Embossed Garland
Explore the beautiful art of tin embossing as you create a collection of decorative pieces to string into a one-of-a-kind garland. Play with patterns, shapes, and textures to make something festive, whimsical, or perfectly suited to your home.
Miniature Houses
There’s something irresistible about a tiny house! Build and decorate your own miniature home, complete with charming little details. Create a standalone piece to display on a shelf or mantel, or add it to your growing winter village. Make it cozy, colorful, quirky, or completely your own.
And of course, it wouldn’t be Crafty Brunch without something delicious!
We’ll be enjoying donuts from Sunday Dough, turnovers from Paradigm, muffins from Aspen Oak Bakery, an assortment of nibbles, and a coffee + juice bar to sip from while you create.
Come with a friend or come on your own. We’ll have all the materials, tools, and guidance ready for you. No experience needed, and no pressure to make anything look like the example.
Just good food, good company, and a few hours to make something with your hands.
All creative materials, brunch bites + beverages included.
We can’t wait to make with you!
A Little Green for the Winter Months
Wednesday, November 11 | 6:30–8:00 PM
With Kasie of Kasie Lin Create
As the days get shorter and the world outside starts to lose its green, we’re bringing a little bit of nature indoors.
Join us for an evening of planting, creating, and learning as you design your very own succulent garden in a custom dish made in-house at The Sheboygan Collective, especially for this workshop.
You’ll get to choose from a wide variety of succulents and decorative elements to create a miniature garden that’s entirely your own. Play with different shapes, colors, textures, and arrangements to build a little landscape you’ll love having in your home.
Along the way, Kasie will share her succulent knowledge, from propagation and plant care to tips for keeping your new garden happy and healthy through the winter months.
Whether you’re a longtime plant lover or someone who’s still figuring out how to keep a succulent alive, this workshop is for you!
All plants, materials, and your custom-made dish are included. You’ll leave with a beautiful little garden, some new plant knowledge, and a bit of green to brighten the winter ahead.
Come make something that grows with you!
Art Prints + Holiday Cards
Wednesday, December 2 | 6:30–8:30 PM
With Kasie
There’s something magical about pulling your very first print and seeing a drawing come to life in an entirely new way.
Join us for an evening exploring drypoint etching, a beautiful printmaking technique that allows you to create detailed, expressive artwork that can be printed again and again.
Kasie is a master of this medium, and she’ll guide you through the entire process—from creating your design to inking your plate and pulling your prints.
You’ll begin by etching a design into a plastic printing plate. Then, we’ll work ink into the etched lines and transfer your image onto paper using a printing press. The best part? Your plate can be used repeatedly, allowing you to experiment with different inks, papers, and finishes.
Make it your own!
Create a collection of handmade holiday cards to send to friends and family, or design a beautiful piece of wall art to keep or gift.
Bring your own drawing, a favorite image to trace, or choose from templates we’ve created right here at TSC. Your design should fit within a 4” x 6” area.
Whether you’re completely new to printmaking or looking to explore a new technique, you’ll have plenty of guidance and room to experiment.
We’ll provide all the materials, tools, inks, and paper you need.
Come for the process. Leave with something worth sharing.

A Little Holiday Magic, Made by You
Wednesday, December 16 | 6:00–8:00 PM
Ages 10 + Up
A holiday classic, with a creative twist!
Join us for a festive evening in the studio as we turn traditional nutcrackers into one-of-a-kind holiday treasures.
We’ll have everything you need to make your nutcracker completely your own. Paint bold patterns, add colorful details, decoupage with decorative papers, and finish with all sorts of fun embellishments. Go traditional, whimsical, modern, or wonderfully over the top!
Your finished nutcracker might become a new favorite piece of holiday décor, a handmade gift, or a keepsake that comes out year after year.
And this one is especially fun to make together!
Nutcracker Studio is open to ages 10 and up, making it a wonderful opportunity to spend a creative evening with your tween or teen, grandchild, niece, nephew, or another special young person in your life. Of course, adults are just as welcome to come on their own or bring a friend!
We’ll provide the nutcrackers, paints, papers, embellishments, and all the tools you need. Just bring your imagination and a little holiday spirit.
No experience necessary. We’ll be there to help bring your ideas to life.
A little time together. A little creative freedom. A holiday keepsake that’s entirely your own.

Monday, November 9th
Wednesday, December 9th
Join Megan under the new moon for a circle experience with other women. Held in the tradition established by The Wild Women Project, we will use the tools of meditation, journaling and intention setting to check in on ourselves, witness each other, and establish a clear direction for the month ahead. Each ceremony integrates seasonal influence and moon placement to guide you into a space of connection with your own intuition and wisdom. Stick around after for drinks, snacks and interesting conversation.
Our circle welcomes women from all walks of life, fostering a community built on respect, confidentiality, and sharing of experiences with the intention to connect deeper with the wisdom that lives within each of us and the wisdom that lives collectively among us.
This event is on the second level with only stair access.

Upcoming youth + Family
Studio Programs
At The Sheboygan Collective, we believe art is a powerful way for young people to build confidence, curiosity, resilience and a sense of belonging.
Our programs aren’t designed around twenty kids making the same thing. Instead, our educators introduce techniques, share a variety of examples, and provide an abundance of materials to give young artists a place to begin—then we leave room for their ideas to take over.
Over time, we’ve watched students move from asking, “Is this right?” to walking into the studio saying, “I have an idea.”
That’s the growth we’re after.
Wednesday, October 28 | 5:30–7:00 PM
$20 | Middle School + Up
With Ms. Lola
LEGO minifigures. Smiski. Tiny animals. Cars. Dinosaurs. Game pieces. Trinkets. Random little objects you’ve collected and love.
Bring them to the studio!
In this Teen Studio workshop, we’ll turn your favorite little things into a one-of-a-kind plaster cast collage.
You’ll arrange your collection into a composition, create a mold, and cast your design in plaster. Then we’ll break out the paints to bring your piece to life! Go bold and colorful, highlight your favorite details, keep it monochromatic, or leave some of that beautiful raw plaster showing.
What to Bring:
Bring 5–10 small toys, figures, or trinkets that represent what you’re into right now. Choose objects you’re comfortable using in the mold-making process and leave anything especially valuable or irreplaceable at home.
We’ll provide the plaster, mold-making materials, paints, tools + everything else you need.
No experience needed. Just bring your favorite little things and come make something cool.
Space is limited for this workshop, so be sure to register early to save your spot!

SOCIAL SATURDAY AT TSC
Community + Creating Come Together
Día de Muertos: Nichos + Marigolds
Saturday, October 31 | 10 AM–2 PM
$10 per person | All ages welcome
In collaboration with Sheboygan with Kids
This October, Social Saturday is a celebration of Día de Muertos—a day to gather, create, remember + celebrate the people we love.
We’ll be making nichos, small decorated boxes found in Mexican folk art that can be used to honor and remember someone meaningful to us. Fill yours with color, flowers, decorative details, and a photograph of someone you’d like to remember.
Please bring a 3×5 or smaller photograph or printed copy of a photo of a loved one who has passed away to include in your nicho. We’ll provide the rest of the materials.
And while everyone creates something of their own, we’ll also make something together.
Throughout the day, we’ll be building a large community marigold arch, with each guest invited to create tissue-paper cempasúchil and add their flowers to the installation.
Marigolds are an important part of Día de Muertos celebrations. Their brilliant orange and yellow color and distinctive fragrance are traditionally used on ofrendas and along pathways to help welcome and guide the spirits of loved ones. Arches are also used as part of ofrendas, creating a symbolic passage and welcome for those being remembered.
Our arch will grow throughout Social Saturday—many individual flowers, made by many different hands, becoming one community piece.
Come for the full four hours or stop in for a while. Kids, teens, + adults are all invited to create alongside one another.
No art skills needed. Whether Día de Muertos is part of your traditions or you’re learning about it for the first time, everyone is welcome. Come make something, learn a little, and celebrate with us!
SÁBADO SOCIAL EN TSC
Comunidad + Creatividad se Unen
Día de Muertos: Nichos + Cempasúchil
Sábado 31 de octubre | 10 AM–2 PM
$10 por persona | Todas las edades son bienvenidas
En colaboración con Sheboygan with Kids
Este octubre, Social Saturday será una celebración del Día de Muertos, un día para reunirnos, crear, celebrar y recordar a nuestros seres queridos.
Vamos a crear nichos, pequeñas cajitas decorativas de arte popular mexicano que se pueden usar para honrar y recordar a un ser querido que ha fallecido. Puedes llenar el tuyo de colores, flores, detalles decorativos y una fotografía de la persona que estás recordando.
Trae una pequeña fotografía o una copia impresa de una foto de un ser querido que haya fallecido para incluirla en tu nicho. Nosotros tendremos el resto de los materiales.
Y mientras cada quien trabaja en su propio nicho, también crearemos algo juntos:
A lo largo del evento, trabajaremos en construir un gran arco comunitario de cempasúchil, y cada participante podrá hacer su propia flor de papel y agregarla a la instalación.
El cempasúchil es una parte importante del Día de Muertos. Su brillante color naranja y amarillo y su distintiva fragancia se usan tradicionalmente en las ofrendas y a lo largo de los caminos que se preparan para recibir y guiar a los espíritus de nuestros seres queridos. Los arcos también simbolizan un pasaje y una bienvenida para aquellos a quienes queremos recordar.
Nuestro arco irá creciendo a lo largo del evento: muchas pequeñas flores, hechas por diferentes manos, convirtiéndose en una sola creación comunitaria.
Acompáñanos durante toda la sesión o ven solo un rato. Niños, adolescentes y adultos, todos están invitados a crear juntos.
No necesitas tener experiencia en arte ni necesitas tener herencia mexicana o haber celebrado antes esta hermosa tradición. Ya sea que el Día de Muertos sea parte de tus tradiciones o que sea algo completamente nuevo para ti, todos son bienvenidos. Ven a crear, aprender algo nuevo y celebrar con nosotros.
For Everyone
Tuesdays, November 3 + 17
Ages 2–6 | 9:30–11:30 AM
Ages 7–13 | 12:30–2:00 PM
There’s something a little magical about lifting a piece of paper and discovering the print you’ve made underneath!
This November, we’re exploring the wonderful world of printmaking. We’ll experiment with shapes, textures, patterns, colors, and different printing techniques to create one-of-a-kind artwork.
Our younger artists will explore printmaking through playful, hands-on discovery, while older kids will have opportunities to experiment with more detailed designs and techniques.
We’ll introduce the materials, demonstrate different processes, and leave plenty of room for each child to follow their own curiosity.
We’ll take care of the planning, supplies + cleanup. You just bring your creative crew!
Community Lunch + Social Hour
11:30 AM–12:30 PM
Pack a lunch and stay awhile! Families are welcome to enjoy some unhurried time together between sessions. Younger siblings are welcome, and Octopus Playground is just across the street.
Registration
$90 | Family Pass — Includes all children in your family for both November sessions.
$30 | Individual Child — Includes both November sessions.
$20 | Single Class — Join us for one November date.
All materials included. Activities typically last 35–75 minutes, depending on your child’s creative process. Stay for the full session or just as long as works for your family.
Come for the art. Stay for the community.
Wednesday, November 11 | 5:30–7:00 PM
Middle School + Up | With Ms. Lola
A little metal, a few tools, and a whole lot of creative possibilities.
For this Teen Studio, we’re exploring tin embossing, a technique that uses simple tools to press patterns, illustrations, and textures into thin sheets of metal.
Create a collection of embossed pieces to turn into a hanging mobile, design a piece of wall art, or come up with something completely your own.
We’ll have plenty of templates and inspiration to get you started, but you’re welcome to bring your own drawings, images, or designs to work from. Think favorite characters, symbols, nature, patterns, or whatever you’re into right now.
Ms. Lola will guide you through the tools and techniques, then give you the freedom to experiment with your own ideas.
All materials + tools provided. No experience needed.
Come with an idea or discover one while you’re here!
Tuesdays | 5:00-6:00pm
November 3rd, 10th, and 17th. Open Studio November 28th 10-2pm
This month, we’re diving into the wonderfully hands-on world of printmaking.
Across three weeks, young artists will explore linocut, drypoint and monoprinting—three very different ways of creating an image and transferring it to paper. We’ll carve, scratch, layer, ink, press and experiment with the wonderfully unpredictable things that can happen when you make a print.
Rather than working toward one identical finished project, students will learn each process, explore examples and then use the techniques to develop imagery and ideas of their own.
Printmaking naturally invites experimentation: change the color, add another layer, adjust the pressure, make another print and see what happens. Along the way, students will practice creative decision-making, problem-solving and learning from the unexpected.
3-week series • Grades 2–5
Enrolled students are also invited to attend our monthly Community Open Studio complimentary, where their work from the month will be displayed and celebrated.

Three Days of Making, Exploring + Creative Fun!
December 28, 29 + 30
Ages 5–12
For the first time ever, we’re bringing a little camp magic to winter break!
Three days filled with creativity, experimenting, making new friends, and getting wonderfully messy—all while school is out for the holidays.
Our Winter Art Camp is packed with hands-on projects and opportunities for kids to explore different art forms, learn new techniques, and let their imaginations run wild.
We’ll be making plaster creations, experimenting with tin embossing, decorating paper lanterns, designing personalized bag charms, and so much more!
Some projects will be guided, while others will leave plenty of room for kids to follow their own ideas. We love giving young artists the tools, materials, and encouragement to experiment, problem-solve, and discover what they can create.
And of course, camp wouldn’t be camp without the people who make it so much fun!
Kids will spend their days creating, laughing, and exploring alongside Ms. Kasie, Ms. Lola, helper Addy + Ms. Whitney!
