St. Patrick’s Day Parade: Open Studio

Saturday, March 15th
10:30 AM - 1:30 PM

Locally Crafted Workshop

Come to Rio Lakefront for the 23rd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade with the City of Gaithersburg, and then join us for a few hours of open crafting — stay for a few minutes, or hang out all day. Bring a friend, a kid, a partner or come alone. Crafters of all ages will find something fun to make, we’re sure of it. This is a low-pressure, good vibes crafting environment. Just the way all crafting should be!

This event is not just for kids! Adults are invited to get crafty with us, whether you’ve got a kid with you or not.

  • We’ll have several stations set up for your crafting pleasure, including:
  • Our Bead Bar, stocked with plenty of green, gold and rainbows.
  • A cute decor project to bring some rainbow fun to your home this spring.
  • Our popular button-making station, with lots of fun designs to choose from.
  • Coloring projects that will appeal to all ages.

All the projects are open-ended, and ready for you to put your own spin on them. There will be no official instruction, but we will offer lots of inspiration if you need it.

Tickets are $10 in advance or $12 at the door. Crafters under 5 are free, but must be accompanied by a paying adult.

This is not a drop-off event. All children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult.
