Hello Craft Field Trip

On August 22nd, Hello Craft will be kicking off the first of its Field Trips at Baltimore’s own Biggs and Featherbelle (www.biggsandfeather.com). Hello Craft is a non-profit trade association for indie crafters, says Kimberly Dorn, executive director. For $30/person, Biggs and Featherbelle co-owners Kelly and Kasey Evick will give a tour of their Hampden warehouse and studio, teach the different stages of soap making, and let attendees create their own body scrubs. The sisters will also answer any questions about how to turn a craft interest into a thriving business like their own. “We wanted to create a fun, exciting, and crafty product in the natural care industry,” Kasey says. “All of our ingredients are purposeful, beneficial and therapeutic.” There are two Field Trips sessions available at 10 am and 2 pm. At 6pm, all are invited to Hampden’s 13.5% Wine Bar to talk shop and unwind. Register at hellocraft.com. —Maddie Thomas
