Guild was created for people to come together in Kalamazoo to create, learn, and share. Whether you’re dropping into Open Studio, joining a club, or trying a class for the first time, there’s always something happening.
Open Studio
Bring your own project or simply show up and create. Open Studio gives you access to shared tools, materials, and a welcoming space to make at your own pace.
Most sessions are free, with both 16+, All Ages, and Quiet Studio opportunities throughout the month.

Clubs at Guild
Our recurring clubs bring together people who enjoy creating alongside others. Whether you’re into fiber arts, collage, cosplay costuming, ASL, or exploring something new, clubs are a great way to connect and build community.
➔ Have an idea for a new club or an existing club you’d like to bring to Guild? Send us an email!
Classes and Workshops at Guild
Learn new creative skills through free beginner-friendly classes and hands-on, guided workshops led by artists, makers, and community members. Many include all materials, while others invite you to bring your own project pieces.
Ongoing guided event examples include Expressive Arts Therapy, Fermentation Workshops, and Basics of Sewing—and we look forward to adding more soon!
