The Matchbox Miniature Craft

Wednesday, July 22, 2026
6:30pm – 8:00pm

This is a 90-minute “make-and-take” project. It is a teeny diorama-making session focused and “success-guaranteed,” Participants would get a curated project sheet featuring pre-tinted, vintage-style elements pre-scaled to the matchbox dimensions. This allows patrons to focus on composition and paper engineering rather than a blank page.
