To celebrate the kick-off of another year of community arts organizing, The Sanctuary will be hosting our seasonal, family-friendly Casual Cafe, with refreshments and entertainment. Entry will be free, but attendees can show support by browsing the bake sale, or making donations for  hot coffee and tea. There will be live music provided by The J Street Regulars, newspapers and books to browse, toys and games, as well as lots of balloons. Come say hello, see some friends and neighbors, and help us celebrate!

Every Saturday from noon to six, the Sanctuary hosts Open Lab downstairs for the public. Use our tools and most of our supplies for $5 per hour, or get one-on-one assistance from a Lab Tech for $10 an hour. Facilities include general tools for repairs, wood shop, painting and drawing, bike repair, letterpress, sewing, ceramics, paper crafts, bookmaking, screen printing, and more.
Learn more on the main Open Lab page

Come the second Sunday of the month from 6pm to 9pm for sewing & mending night.
