Hands-on art and craft workshops for all ages!
Unleash your creativity at Ford House’s Maker Studios—a rotating series of hands-on workshops designed for curious minds, DIY enthusiasts, and families looking to learn something new together. Hosted by our Education Department, these engaging experiences invite you to roll up your sleeves and make something memorable in a beautiful, historic setting.
Maker Studios offers a chance to explore new artistic techniques and creative skills in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Each session is inspired by a different theme—ranging from seasonal crafts and nature-based projects to fine arts and design—and culminates in a finished piece you can proudly take home.
Workshops for adults, families, or all ages
Maker Studios occur on the picturesque grounds of Ford House—often in the Visitor Center’s classroom spaces or outdoors when weather permits. It’s creativity with a view!
