FAQ

I have a group of 12. Should I do a private event or simply purchase tickets to a workshop?
For parties, we recommend booking the space to celebrate privately.  You can also buy workshop tickets and come together but we won't be able to accommodate serving cake or decorating for publicly run classes. There is also the risk of the workshop selling out.

How far in advance should I book for a private event?
Bookings are reserved on a first-come-first-serve basis.  We recommend reaching out as early as possible to reserve the best time for your group.  That said, 2 weeks advanced notice is usually adequate. 

Is there an age limit to attend the workshops?
We currently only host for ages 6 and up but younger children are allowed to join as long as they have full time supervision from an adult. 

What's the difference between your Chicago and Boston locations?
All our locations feature hands-on workshops. The Chicago location is approximately 1,000 sqft and has a max workshop capacity of 20.  Boston location is 3,500 sqft and has a max workshop capacity of 40-50 and a larger retail area.  Both locations offer private events.

Can I get a refund if my private event needs to be rescheduled?
We offer full refunds and reschedules if you let us know at least 1 weeks prior to the event.  If you have fewer attendees than expected, we would only charge you for those who attend or the minimum for the event, whichever is greater.

Can we 'buy out' the whole shop for a private event?
Yes.  Please contact us!
