Bring a friend, bring your curiosity, and settle in for a playful, hands-on art party where everyday materials are transformed into luminous objects that warm any room or celebration.

Using an inspiring array of collage papers, textured scraps, found ephemera, and vessels in a variety of shapes and sizes, Miranda will gently guide you step-by-step through design choices and ayering techniques. No prior experience required — this is a welcoming space for makers of all levels to experiment, laugh, and make something beautiful together.

• Tips for turning your lantern into a centerpiece, gift, or a permanent accent for any corner of your life
• Time to mingle, share ideas, and leave with a finished lantern (or two) that carries the warmth of the evening

Perfect for a date night, a creative outing with friends, or anyone who wants to bring more light and handmade joy into their home. Come make something that glows as brightly as the conversations you’ll have — we’ll provide the materials, the music, and the magic.

Art is for Everyone!

Creating art playfully and without judgment lets us forget about being perfect. It opens room for self-reflection, connecting with others, and simply enjoying the process. Further more, making art together in a judgment-free space challenges ideas of what art “should be,” sparking conversations that build understanding and kindness. This open approach celebrates different viewpoints, since everyone’s background, experiences, and culture shape their art uniquely.
