☕✨ Cups & Coasters: Design, Make & Sublimate
📅 February 28th | 🕓 1pm - 2pm
📍 Utility Works MakerSpace
Create the perfect pair! In this hands-on makerspace workshop, you’ll design and sublimate your own custom mug, then choose how you want to make a matching coaster using a variety of creative techniques.
After personalizing your mug, you’ll select one coaster-making method to explore—sewing, tufting, laser cutting, 3D printing, or sublimation—with guidance from our instructors. Whether you love textiles, digital fabrication, or hands-on crafting, this class lets you try something new and leave with functional, one-of-a-kind pieces.
✨ What to Expect:
- Learn the basics of mug sublimation
- Choose a coaster-making method that fits your style
