Every great adventure begins with a little light.
Join Rusted Rose Studios at Arkins Juice Tavern for a magical hands-on S.T.E.A.M. workshop where kids and parents create glowing lanterns inspired by dragons, fairies, mermaids, unicorns, and other fantastical creatures. Using light, shadow, and imagination, participants will transform an ordinary jar into a glowing work of art that tells a story all its own.
As your lantern comes to life, you'll explore how artists use light and design to create atmosphere, emotion, and wonder. Whether you're crafting a dragon's lair, a fairy forest, or an entirely original fantasy world, every lantern becomes a unique reflection of its creator.
This is a relaxed, hands-on experience where creativity leads the way. Through building, experimenting, and exploring, participants will discover how imagination and simple materials can come together to create something truly magical.

Make a Day of It
After class, stick around and enjoy lunch at Arkins Juice Tavern. Grab a smoothie, sandwich, or snack while your enchanted lantern glows beside you and celebrate a morning filled with creativity, imagination, and discovery.
As your lantern begins to glow, imagination takes center stage. Design a dragon's cave, a fairy garden, a magical kingdom, or a world of your own creation while exploring how light and shadow bring stories to life.
