FEATURED WORKSHOP

The Crow Show

Trinket Swap! Halloween Edition

Calling all curious crows, collectors of oddities, and lovers of beautiful little treasures! Join us for a delightfully witchy Halloween evening filled with music, tarot readings, Halloween-inspired bites, a mischievous Quickie craft, a cash cocktail and proofless pleasures bar, and our signature trinket swap.

The Crow Show is a lively, cocktail-style gathering designed for mingling, nibbling, and moving about the venue. Rather than a traditional seated dinner, guests will enjoy Halloween-inspired bites from food stations while exploring the trinket swap, tarot readings, music, creative activities, and other curious happenings.

Our Philosophy

We believe the act of making is its own kind of nourishment — whether that’s a meal, a stitch, or simply a moment that’s entirely your own. At Marigold, we slow down on purpose — to stitch, to felt, to shape something real with our hands. We come together as a community of makers, beginners and seasoned alike, drawn by the quiet satisfaction of creating. Everyone is welcome at this table

Make with intention

Each workshop is designed to bring creativity directly to your hands - focused, present, and fully engaged in the process. Process over perfection, always.

ROOTED IN GLOBAL CRAFT

Techniques and materials drawn from traditions across Mexico, India, Morocco, and beyond—honored, studied, and reinterpreted through a modern lens

GATHER & EXPERIENCE

More than a class—each offering is a shared experience. Food, conversation, and making come together in thoughtfully designed gatherings.

The Marigold Atelier

A Slow Craft Workshop Series

The Marigold Atelier is a collection of hands-on workshops exploring global textile traditions, storytelling through cloth, and the beauty of handmade work. Each class invites participants to slow down, work with beautiful materials, and create meaningful objects by hand.

Workshops include curated fabrics, tools, and materials, along with tea or wine and light refreshments.

No prior experience is required unless noted.

CURATOR VOICE

Artist. Chef. Curator

Marigold Art Collective is shaped by a life spent working across kitchens, studios, and markets around the world—where craft, food, and culture intersect in meaningful ways.

The work behind the collective draws from years of experience in hospitality and the arts, as well as time spent sourcing textiles, studying traditional techniques, and gathering inspiration across Mexico, India, Morocco, and beyond. What emerges is a space designed for making—where materials carry history, process is valued, and each experience is thoughtfully composed from start to finish.

Marigold exists as both studio and gathering place: a place to create, to learn, and to share in something intentional.
