The Globe and Mail

Welcome to Craft Club, the Globe’s new event series and Facebook group where feature writer Jana G. Pruden (and special guests) teach you new craft skills live online.

The Globe is thrilled to offer this new (free!) bi-weekly series, with livestreamed events available on our website and on Facebook. You can learn new skills, ask questions and benefit from this social connection as we share our projects.

Join the Facebook group to get advance notice of events and a short list of supplies required. Then, every two weeks, Jana will be live on Facebook and The Globe and Mail website learning a new hobby from an expert. Topics include embroidery, collage and making soap.
