Explore the Norwegian concept of ‘hygge’ (pronounced hyoo-guh) while creating vessels to create a sense of warmth in the coldest of South Dakota's months. Hygge is often associated with warmth, comfort, coziness and finding joy in simple things. 

Embrace these ideas as you create luminaries for the table, an incense burner for the home, a set of soup bowls and charcuterie board.

- This will be a three week class ending with a potluck to celebrate hygge together.

- For ages 17+
