If you can dream it you can do it! Really! This highly requested workshop focuses on REAL building skills: foundation, framing, roofing, and siding of a scale-model structure made from all natural materials. Each artist will build a structure and then construct accessory pieces to furnish their abodes. The building size is loosely based on the 1“=1’ scale. This workshop is a popular offering every summer!

Ages 8+ and must have confidence with the glue gun.

Summer Workshop Details

The StudioTime Summer workshop schedule is a 4-day retreat, Monday-Thursday from 10am-3:30pm. We begin with a morning studio session followed by a short break mid-morning. For lunch, we head out to one of the nearby parks for a picnic and to move our bodies! (note: weather and workload can alter the daily schedule) The day ends with another afternoon studio session. All materials and supplies are included. Please bring a lunch and beverage each day.

Our summer workshops fill quickly and require a non-refundable deposit to enroll. To request a spot and receive deposit information, please contact us at Patrice@AlamedaStudioTime.com. Please note that only email requests are accepted - all other forms of communication will be disregarded.

*It will take at least 10 participants to launch a StudioTime Summer workshop. If a particular workshop doesn’t fill, we will either substitute another workshop in its place or cancel the workshop, returning payment to those enrolled.
