2027 Upcoming Events
It's not just a crop, it's an experience!
At Heart After Arts, we don’t do things halfway. We are extra, all day, every day, and unapologetically so! We take great care in cultivating an exquisite crop experience with a warm, inviting atmosphere for everyone. Our goal isn’t just to craft, it’s to build community while crafting and having fun. We offer unique ice breaker activities to get to know each other, free classes with our exclusive paper lines, beloved signature specialty snacks, free mini projects that demo exciting products and techniques, and we reward prizes every hour in a fun and unique way. Our crops have all the frills, and we’re sure that you’ll love it as much as we do!
Why join us?
Are you looking to make new crafty friends? Do you need inspiration for your next project? Do you miss the community feel of local events? Looking for a getaway experience to rest, recharge, and relax? Struggling to make time for yourself and your crafting? Don't worry, we've got you covered! Join us at our next scrapbook getaway and you won't regret it! You'll be inspired by others around you. You'll create free make n' take projects and a full 12x12 layout. You have the chance to win prizes that are called every hour and grand prizes called every evening. You'll participate in our introductory ice breaker.. we know it sounds lame but we promised it'll be one of your favorite memories: just ask our previous attendees. Your table gift will be stuffed with goodies of at least $60 retail value, but can be up to $100+ value.
