Brooklyn Craft Company and Brooklyn Craft Camp were founded by DIY expert Brett Bara. Brett is a Brooklyn resident and crafts professional who saw a need for fun, approachable crafts activities for creative (but busy) New Yorkers. She took her knowledge of the crafts industry, combined it with the Brooklyn DIY scene, added in delicious food, great style, and good music–and Brooklyn Craft Camp was born. Craft Camp was such a success that it spawned a larger initiative, Brooklyn Craft Company: a 1400-square-foot space in a former pencil factory offering a full schedule of modern craft and DIY classes.

I think the course would be better if the instructor didn’t rush through each exercise and also had visual handouts so we can reference what are expected to do. It’s hard to learn from someone who is sitting down trying to teach you different water color techniques.

The class was perfect. I tremendously enjoyed the session and learned a lot. The only problem I encountered was when I showed up, I was not on the list. But the team from Brooklyn Craft still took me in and I was able to do the class without any issues.

This is the second time I have taken with class and I will definitely sign up for future ones! There is always great camaraderie and conversations in these classes while everyone is working on their felting project. Our instructor, Jessie, is a pro and offers many helpful suggestions throughout the lesson! I highly recommend the experience!

This class was really nice. The instructor was hands-on and had really high energy. I didn't realize I had to buy materials, so just plan to purchase materials in addition to the cost of the class!

Exactly what I was looking for! A great class to learn knitting basics. The instructor was so helpful and patient. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking to learn how to knit, it’s much easier than trying to learn online.

I loved this class so much! I was very nervous - I had been trying to teach myself to sew...with mixed results. The instructor was super clear and I walked away with a beautiful quilt! I can't believe it.
