Your Complete Guide to the HobbyScool 2025 Art of Handmade Summit
Welcome to the HobbyScool Art of Handmade Summit
Get ready for four days of pure creativity! 🎉 The HobbyScool Art of Handmade Summit is happening September 15–18, and it’s completely free to join.
Over 36 expert makers are teaching workshops covering every corner of the handmade world — from fabric arts and quilting to jewelry, macramé, digital design, clay, and more. Whether you want to try something brand new or deepen your skills, you’ll find plenty of inspiration here.
How the Event Works
Here’s what you can expect when you join:
Workshops: Each morning at 9 AM ET, new sessions go live and stay available for 24 hours.
Summit Website: You’ll watch all the presentations directly on the summit site (link delivered to your email).
Crafty Clubhouse: This year, we’re moving the community to Skool — our new free group space where you can connect with fellow attendees, share your projects, and join in challenges and giveaways.
It’s the best of both worlds: learn at your own pace on the summit site, and make new creative friends inside the group.
