Join us at Urban Farm Fermentory in Portland, ME for a festive workshop of holiday fun and pretty lettering for beginners! Whether you’re a stationery nerd, DIY Bride-to-be, or just a crafty individual, in this workshop you’ll be learning an introduction to modern calligraphy with a pointed dip pen and ink. We will cover all the basics and get you ready to add those special lettered details to all your holiday tables, Christmas trees, hostess gifts, gift tags, holiday card mailings and more!
Class includes 1.5 hours of instruction and demonstration, our beginner’s calligraphy kit (two nibs, black ink pot, 2 letter guides, tracing paper and straight pen holder), and all materials to write on. Everything is yours to keep at the end of the workshop! Additionally, we will be lettering on holiday gift tags at the end of our class time!
Urban Farm will be graciously providing a free taste of kombucha for each ticket holder! To learn more about Urban Farm, check out their website and say hey on Instagram.

Feel free to come early, grab your seat, and purchase a drink (available to purchase throughout class too!). Class will start promptly at 5:30PM!
Class Expectations: Yes, lefties are welcome too! This class is encouraged for someone who has never taken a calligraphy class before. We teach the basics and our expectation for you is to have ink flowing through your nib with enough confidence to be able to practice way beyond class. We love using tracing paper with our guides to help you build muscle memory and develop your own style! If you have tried calligraphy out before, this class will be a great refresher and hopefully a chance to try some new supplies from our beginner kit that will re-introduce you to this lovely form of art!
A note on bringing guests 16 and under: We love to share this passion with kids. You are welcome to get a ticket for your child as long as you are comfortable with people around them having a drink or two. We do ask that anyone under the age of 16 is to be accompanied by a ticketed adult at all times.

Build your own terrarium in one of our apothecary-style workshops and enjoy a free tasting of Freedom’s Edge Ciders, brewed locally in Albion, ME.
*must be 21 or older to take part in the cider tasting.
An “easy like Sunday morning” casual terrarium build with a complimentary mimosa (or coffee or tea or whatever helps you start your day right!). For this workshop we’ll be creating terrariums in antique canning jars and welcome artists of all skill levels.
We love the community building that comes along with hosting workshops! This is our first in-person event in years. Come join the fun!
Join us each Sunday at 11:30am in our taproom, where you’ll check in before heading out on either a 4(ish) mile loop around the Western Promenade — OR a 2(ish) mile run down the Fore River Trail — and back. See the route maps here. Post-run discounted draft pours, tasty eats, and high-serotonin vibes to be found afterwards.
(Still want to run on Mondays at 5:30pm through the winter? Go for it! We’ll continue offering the same discount to runners on that night as well.)

Sip & Paint at Cheese Louise – Join us for a fun night of wine and alternative painting techniques, no painting experience required!
Join us at Cheese Louise with local artist Kait Micks for a lively night of delicious wine and alternative painting techniques. Kait will lead you through a painting of our cheese wheel logo as you enjoy a glass (or two!) of Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon or Rosé, compliments of Cheese Louise. No art experience is necessary.
We invite you to go against the grain and learn Kait’s unorthodox painting style while creating something you can be proud of. Kait’s use of textures and colors result in a bright, tactile painting that she insists you touch (after it’s dry, of course). A canvas, paint and brushes will be provided, as well as two glasses of wine and your choice of a discounted sandwich from Cheese Louise.
We suggest you wear clothes you don’t mind getting paint on, and your hair tied up. This process could be messy!
Instruction will begin at 6pm sharp, so we ask you arrive at least 15 minutes before to grab your first glass of wine and pick your preferred seat.
This event is 21+, so please remember to bring your valid ID.
Maine native, and self identified starving artist, Kait Micks has been creating and making art since childhood. Kait’s art can be recognized for its sensory-friendly composition and use of bright colors. Since being diagnosed with autism at age 22, Kait uses art as an outlet to release emotions. She draws inspiration from Andy Warhol, Lisa Frank, and nature. Over the years Kait has come to find that “art is about feeling free”.
Who’s in?! The winner of this festive contest wins a free night’s stay with us at Blind Tiger Guest House, so get ready to show us your best decorating skills! We’ll provide all the supplies you’ll need, plus delicious mocktails (BYOB) and a hot cocoa bar!
Come join us for a festive evening of gingerbread house decorating! We will be sharing holiday mock-tails (BYOB) and a hot chocolate bar. Our pre-made gingerbread homes will be ready for you to dive in with all of the icing, and candy decorations you desire.
The winner will be gifted a winter wonderland overnight stay with us.
We love the community building that comes along with hosting workshops! This is our first in-person event in years. Come join the fun!
