Frequently Asked Questions

The Downtown DIY is an all inclusive, creative studio offering hands-on workshops, classes, and private events.

Not at all! Most workshops are beginner-friendly (unless otherwise stated) and guided step-by-step. We provide instruction, materials, and encouragement — you just bring yourself and a willingness to create.

We totally understand wanting to create together, especially with friends or kids. However, each participant must have their own registration and seat. Sharing a project under one ticket isn’t something we’re able to accommodate, as it impacts materials and the overall class experience for everyone.

Food & drinks are always welcome (even boozy ones). Some events include refreshments — check the event description for details.

All supplies, tools, instruction, and use of our studio materials are included. We've even got a fridge full of drinks & some snacks that our guests are welcome to.

At this time, we do not offer walk-in or open studio hours. The Downtown DIY is open by reservation only for scheduled workshops and private events. This allows us to fully prepare materials and give each group the best possible experience.

Tipping is never expected, but always appreciated. Our workshop pricing is designed to fully cover instruction, materials, and the experience.

If you feel your instructor went above and beyond and you’d like to show appreciation, tips are welcome and go directly to the instructor.

Absolutely! We love seeing your creations shared. Tag us on social media so we can celebrate your work too!

Please arrive 5–10 minutes early to check in and get settled so we can start on time.

We have a full parking lot right in front of our studio.

Due to preparation and supply costs, tickets are non-refundable unless the event is canceled by The Downtown DIY. If you’re unable to attend, tickets may be transferred to another person unless otherwise stated.

Nope! One of the best parts of coming to The Downtown DIY is that you get to create without worrying about the mess.

Just like at a restaurant — you enjoy the experience, and we take care of the cleanup. When the workshop ends, you’re free to admire your work and head out while we handle the rest.

Yes! We host birthday parties, girls’ nights, team-building events, and more. Private events are fully customized — reach out to us directly for availability and details.

There is! Private events are subject to a minimum spend, and pricing is based on the project selected and number of guests.

For specific details and availability, we invite you to reach out.

Absolutely! Some groups choose to do more than one craft. When adding projects, event length and pricing will increase accordingly.

Some workshops are family-friendly or even kid specific, while others are designed for adults. We ask that (unless otherwise stated) guests meet our studio age minimum of 14 years old. Children must attend with a parent or guardian when required. If your child doesn't meet the age minimum, but you feel they're a good fit — feel free to message us.

Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to stay.

For classes designed for younger children, we’ll note in the event description if parent assistance is required and encouraged. Outside of those, we kindly ask that participation is reserved for registered guests only so every guest has the same experience.
