Grab your friends and spend the evening getting creative while making a lampshade that’s as unique as you are.
About this Event

This hands-on, low-pressure craft experience is all about experimenting, hanging out, and letting ideas unfold—no art background required.

You’ll have a mix of playful materials to work with, from paint and collage to embroidery and mixed media, so you can go bold, minimal, chaotic, or cozy. The result? A one-of-a-kind lampshade you’ll actually want to take home and use. Lamp size is 3.5x5.5x5 Inch.

With two live DJs setting the vibe, this will be a creative night—easygoing, social, and full of good energy. Come for the craft, stay for the music, conversation, and seeing how wildly different everyone’s lampshades turn out.

🎟️ Spots are limited — claim yours and get creative this season.

About the Instructor:

Kaleidoscope is a guided, social art experience designed for adults of all skill levels. Each session blends intuitive art-making, thoughtfully designed prompts, music, and gentle facilitation to create a welcoming environment where guests can relax, connect, and create something meaningful.

About Sunset Commons:

Carmen and Steven started Sunset Commons to provide a space to connect and build community through arts and craft activities led by talented local artists. Inspired by a love for creativity and a desire to foster connection in the Sunset District, we envisioned a “third space” where neighbors can gather, unwind, and form meaningful relationships. Our mission is to empower self-expression, boost confidence, and offer an inclusive haven for everyone, from introverts seeking a calm environment to those enjoying health-focused traditional teas. Sunset Commons is not just a business - it’s our way of enriching the community we love and to the city we both grew up in.
