The Makerie
"The Makerie is a creative retreat for anyone. Whether you are a skilled crafter or have never picked up a paintbrush, we offer something for everyone. We believe with all our hearts that each person is creative and our cozy mountain retreat is designed to inspire, encourage and nurture your creativity. Each of our sensational teachers offer unique workshops at the Makerie and we can’t wait for you to take a peek at the wonderful variety of offerings!
In addition to the workshops, we provide wake-up yoga and/or hiking, as well as healthy, local, organic (where possible), yummy foods as part of the weekend so you feel nurtured all around. Our creative getaway makes special efforts to be kind to the earth, as we strive to make thoughtful choices in the event planning process and throughout the event. In a nutshell, being at the Makerie is like being back at camp and at the end of the day, don't we all want to feel like a kid again?" ~ Ali Dejohn

CREATIVE WORKSHOPS ~ STYLED LUNCHES ~ FARM DINNERS
By gathering our local creative and food communities, we'll be providing three unique, soul-filled days at the lovely Lyons Farmette. Each event, centered around a theme, offers a variety of modern, creative and homesteading classes in sewing, photography, letterpress, flower arranging, collage and canning, just to name a few of the fabulous choices. Delicious and healthy meals, provided by eat PRIVATE CHEF & CATERING co., Crust and Whole Foods, incorporate local, farm fresh and organic food into each event through a charming styled boxed lunch and a fabulous farm dinner. Add to that marvelous mix, a creative cocktail hour complete with a special 'cocktail crafting' class by Whole Foods. If that didn't sound like a day dream, well we even have a few surprises planned on top of all that to be sprinkled into every event! We are immensely grateful to Whole Foods for their incredible support as our presenting sponsor.
The inspiration to start the Summer Series came out of the need to celebrate and focus on our local creative and food communities and to highlight the incredible people and small businesses that are doing fantastic things. Having them share their knowledge through leading workshops in an intimate setting creates a wonderful connection within our communities and sitting down next to each other for a farm dinner at the end of the day, pulling our chairs close, tops off the night for an overall unforgettable experience. After creating weekend long retreats, we felt the need for a new offering that was only one day and filled with the same amount of magic and love as our current creative getaways. We can't wait to combine two of our very favorite things ~ creative workshops and farm dinners ~ which naturally go hand and hand for this Summer Series celebration. So pencil us in and join us! We'd absolutely love to have you.
