New House is proud to present a new exciting programme of workshops starting this May !
Guildford Artisans is an exciting new concept which aims to unite makers and creators alike with a range of workshops aimed at the modern crafter.
Founded by two female entrepreneurs, Dom Frazer (Boileroom, New House) and Nerrisa Pratt (The Bargello Edit, Untld Project), in answer to the lack of creative spaces for makers in the Guildford area, the collaborative aims to empower craft fans to create on-trend, instagram worthy projects that customers have had in their ’to make’ lists for a while.
Their offering launches with 2 workshops (with more on the way soon)that will take place in Dom’s New House venue and will be taught by Nerrisa who has not only appeared Kirstie’s Handmade Christmas previously ran workshops for the likes of IKEA, Hobbycraft, Cricut and more. Each workshop will give the customer the skills and the materials they need to create one of their many on-trend projects as well as offering a creative space to meet like-minded people and socialise over a glass of Prosecco and cake (included in the ticket price).
To launch, customers can choose from a diverse range of workshops, learning new skills that have been extensively researched as ’trending’ including crocheting, Ice tye-dying, jesmonite pouring and more.
