Join us for a Saturday afternoon workshop, where we will make beautiful butterflies out of coffee filters, markers, water, and pipe cleaners.

Everyone will have the chance to make multiple butterflies, then turn them into either a garland or individual ornaments on strings.

These butterflies will look beautiful hanging in a window all year long!

Parents/caregivers are welcome to hang out with us for the workshop, or drop off your child and enjoy some time to yourself.

This workshop is ideal for kids aged 4+ but all are welcome.

When:
Saturday, August 22, 2026
4:00 - 5:00 PM

Where:
The Local Hand
1912 Dorchester Ave
Dorchester, MA 02124

About your instructor:
Michaela Flatley is a local artist, designer, mother, and owner of The Local Hand. A lifelong painter, her work centers on the motif of the grid. She draws inspiration from traditionally craft-based forms such as quilting, weaving, embroidery, and mosaics -- mediums historically marginalized due to their associations with femininity and domestic labor. In addition to her artwork and her business, Michaela is a committed community organizer and currently serves as Board President of Greater Ashmont Main Street.

Workshop tickets are non-refundable, because we purchase all supplies ahead of time based on headcount. If you cannot make it, consider sending a friend in your place! In the event that a workshop is canceled due to instructor illness, inclement weather, low enrollment, or other unforeseen circumstances, we will notify all participants via email as soon as possible and issue a full refund.
