What is Crafters Club?

A haven. Space and company for adults and teens who like to create things and be inspired by others who are creative. No skill requirements and no pressure. Simply bring your projects and supplies, and spend some time with other crafters working on their own projects. Enjoy light refreshments and a supportive atmosphere, where you might learn from other crafters and teach others as well.
