About the Event
Let’s gather one last time in 2025 to celebrate creativity and community before the new year begins. Craft & Connect invites you to slow down, unwind, and express yourself through arts & crafts. Together, we’ll create something handmade and meaningful, a reminder of the warmth and joy our community shares.
You’ll choose one of two festive projects: rolling your own beeswax candles or designing a snow mason jar. Each craft is led by the talented team from Happy Trees Entertainment, who will bring all the supplies, tools, and expert guidance needed for a cozy, creative afternoon.

The Venue
Our gathering takes place at Commas, a lively food hall in the heart of Silver Spring. Guests are encouraged to arrive between 1:00 and 1:15 PM to grab a drink or enjoy a bite before crafting begins at 2:00 PM.
Commas features a variety of local vendors serving delicious food ranging from $10–$20. Whether you want a quick snack or a full meal, you’ll find plenty of options to satisfy your cravings.
Eating and drinking are not permitted during the crafting portion, but there will be time afterward to grab another drink, share stories, and admire everyone’s creations.
