About us<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Two mums who wanted somewhere to craft \u2014 so we built it.<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We're two religious olim mums. Between us we spent years working in hi-tech, and somewhere along the way we both realised we wanted to build something different \u2014 something with our hands in it, and other people around.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

What we kept wanting was somewhere to go regularly and make things with friends. Not a one-off class. Not a shop you walk in and out of. A room you could become a regular at, learn something new in, and sit in with a coffee while you finished a project.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Nobody was running it, so we opened it. The Art House is the place we wanted: a shop at the front with good materials, and a studio at the back with the machines, the table space and the company.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\tCome and See Us\n<\/a>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

Everything's already here.<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

Sewing Machines & Equipment<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Machines, thread, scissors, pins and all the bits that make sewing possible \u2014 whether you're taking up a hem or making something from scratch.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Painting & Craft Materials<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Paint, brushes, paper, canvas and a well-stocked supply of craft materials for whatever you've got in mind.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

A Cricut<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

For cutting, lettering and personalising. Useful for gifts, labels, cards and all the projects you didn't think you could make yourself.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Seven Craft Kits<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Pick a kit off the shelf, find a seat and make it here. No planning, no shopping list, and no clearing up afterwards.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

What we're about<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A place to be, not just a place to buy.<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n \t\t\t

Beginners first<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Nobody here assumes you know what you're doing. Most people don't when they start \u2014 that's the normal way in, not the exception.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Regulars, not one-offs<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The weekly groups exist so that crafting becomes a habit rather than a special occasion. Come every week, or come when you can.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

English and Hebrew<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We teach in both, so you can come in whichever language you think in \u2014 and sit next to someone who thinks in the other one.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

Questions people ask before coming in<\/h2>\n\t\t
\n
\n \n \n \t\t\t

I'm not crafty at all. Is this for me?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

Yes, and you'd be in good company. Most people who come through the door haven't sewn since school, or have never picked up a crochet hook. Our courses start at the very beginning, and at the weekly groups there is always someone happy to show you.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

Do I need to bring anything?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

No. Sewing machines, equipment, paint, brushes and craft materials are all here. If you'd rather work on something of your own \u2014 a garment that needs mending, a project you've already started \u2014 bring it along.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

What's the difference between a course, a chug and a group?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

A course is a series of taught sessions you sign up for, running in the afternoons and evenings. A chug is a weekly class for children aged nine and up, running from November through to June. A group is a weekly drop-in at the Art Cafe \u2014 come when you can, leave when you need to, and there's nothing to commit to.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

Are you in English or Hebrew?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

Both. We run in English and Hebrew, so come in whichever you're more comfortable with.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

Can children come?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

Yes. Youth Sewing and Youth Drawing & Painting run as weekly chugim for ages nine and up, and on Tuesday afternoons the studio opens up for children to come and make whatever they like.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

Can I just buy materials without taking a class?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

Of course. The front of the shop is a craft store \u2014 fabric, paint, yarn and craft supplies. We also stock seven different craft kits that you can buy and sit and make right here.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\t

When are you open?<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n
