Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the Tinker Lab & Craft Studio Birthday Party work?
A: Our Tinker Lab & Craft Studio Birthday Parties are a free-form creative experience. We like to start with making slime, and then allow the guests to explore the workshop to find an activity that interests them. Kids may choose from any of our activities including painting, beading, woodworking, hot glue, electronics, and more. Our workshop guides will be on hand to guide kids into appropriate activities. With about 30 minutes remaining in the party we will gather at your dedicated party table to sing Happy Birthday, have cake and open presents (if desired). Kids who wish to continue with their projects may continue at this time. Kids may take home anything they make at the party.
Q: How does the DIY Studio Party work?
A: Our DIY Studio parties are great for tweens through adults. Prior to the party we will provide the party host with DIY project options such as painted glassware, board painting, canvas tote bag, record painting and more. Host will select the project for the group. Guests will be guided in the completion of their project. Guests will have a total of 2 hours to complete their project. Host may choose to use some of that time for cake and presents, or continue creating throughout the entire 2 hours.
Q: Will someone be showing us how to make the projects we choose?
A: DIY Studio parties include a party attendant to provide your guests with the materials and instruction for their projects, however guests will put their own personal spin on all projects. Projects are considered DIY and will each be unique to the guest who creates it.
Q: Can we have a project that fits the theme of our party?
A: Tinker Lab & Craft Studio Party: We find that guests like the freedom of being able to do the activity or project that interests them most, and often this means that they do not take interest in a specific project provided for them. This leaves the birthday child feeling disappointed. We find it is best to allow guests to find something that excites them and sparks their creativity. That said, we can design a themed project for your party if you wish. Some projects may have an additional fee.
A: DIY Studio Party: Themed projects are available for an additional fee. Please inquire with your ideas and we will be happy to work with you to create a project that's perfect for your party theme!
Q: Our party is on a Saturday, will there be other kids there that aren't part of the party?
A: Field Workshop is divided into 3 zones: DIY Studio (Teen/Adult); Tinker Lab & Kids' Craft Studio; Art Classroom.
During regular operating hours our DIY Studio and Tinker Lab & Kids' Craft Studio will be open to the public for walk-in visitors, therefore there may be people in the workshop that are not part of your party. All party-goers and walk-in-guests will be working side by side on activities that interest them. If your party has any special themed projects or activities those will be set aside for party guests only. Your party will have a dedicated party table for your guests to have cake and open presents.
Parties held on Saturdays after 7:00 pm and on Sundays will have exclusive use of that zone. We will not accept walk-ins during those times.
Q: Can we bring in our own food and drink?
A: Yes! Feel free to bring the food and beverage of your choice!
Q: What if I have more guests than what the party includes?
A: The more the merrier! We appreciate you giving us a final count 1 week prior to the party so we can be sure we have enough staff to make your party run smoothly.
Q: Do parents need to stay for the party?
A: Parents are always welcome to stay and assist their children in their creative process. Parents of children age 5+ may leave their children during the party time. Children age 4 and under should have a caregiver or someone to work closely with them during their visit.
