Private Parties

Celebrate something special

We love to help you celebrate something special.  From kids birthday parties to a fun girls night event, we're here to help make your event something fabulous!

Plan your next event with us

MAKE’s Celebrations and Parties are one of a kind experiences. Our studio space was created with the idea that everyday is a celebration. We offer a bright & happy venue for your private group. Special events might include birthdays, holidays, bachelorette parties, team building and more! We create a unique, fun, personalized, creative, on-trend "themed" project, and provide all art supplies. Each guest will travel home with a customized project that they made by hand. Parties are 1.5 hours with 1 hour of your selected craft, followed by 30 minutes of treats that you provide to serve. Packages start at $400 for 10 guests, and scale based on your chosen activity and optional add ons. We can accommodate a maximum of 20 guests for an additional fee.

Have a theme in mind? We can help bring it to life or surprise you with a favorite MAKE project! Your special event will be unforgettable! Private events & Birthday parties tend to book in advance, so be sure to get your special date on the calendar! Our party calendar allows bookings up to 3 months before your party date. For more information, availability and details please reach out!  Take a peek at our studio and connect with us on Instagram to see the dreamy possibilities for your one of a kind party experience! 

Party FAQs

Here's what you need to know about your party!

What is the TImeline of my party

The part host is welcome to arrive 20 minutes before your scheduled start time to get settled. Your party will last 1hour and 30 minutes (unless youv'e added extra time).
To keep things running smoothly, we kindly ask that all guests head out when your party time ends. The host family will have an additional 20 minutes to gather belongings and wrap things up.
We often book multiple parties in a day and want to give every celebration the care it deserves, including yours!

Can I bring decor or outside entertainment for my party?

Totally! If you choose to bring any decor, please keep in mind: all items must be pre-assembled (think banners pre-strung, centerpieces assembled, florals made etc). We do not allow piñatas, balloon air walkers, or confetti. No Outside vendors or entertainment.

I really want to customize my party.  What can I do?

We love custom parties at MAKE! Our custom party packages can be personalized to you.  Adding personalized project, studio decor, and goodie bags are all things that make your event unique. If you're interested in learning more, please email bridget@makecraftcamp.com

Can I bring in my own Food and snacks?

You are  more than welcome to bring your own food & treats to the party. Just a few guidelines to keep things smooth: Food should be ready to set out and serve (we do not provide bowls, trays, serving utensils or any specialty paper goods). We're a no heat zone- no burners, hot plates or warmers. (Best options are sandwiches, crudite, fruit platters, cheese boards etc) Need freezer space? Just let us know ahead of time, we're happy to help if we can.

How do I pay for my Party?  What is your Cancellation and Refund Policy?

A $150 nonrefundable deposit is due at the time of booking, and is the only way to guarantee your selected party date/time. MAKE party planners are fantastic, and work so hard to make your party a success! If an additional MAKE team member is needed for your Studio event, an additional fee will be applied. Full payment is due two weeks prior to your scheduled party date, at which point it becomes nonrefundable.
