Community Craft Jam – Networking for Creatives
Our monthly Craft Jams are a hybrid of co-working and networking sessions for creatives of all sorts.
Curious as to what a typical Craft Jam looks like? Think of it as a breeding ground for ideas and inspiration (check out the vibe of past meetups here).
Open to all simply bring in supplies for your latest project and join us at one of the large communal tables. Whether it be knitting, painting or graphic design, all mediums (including computers) are welcome.
Our community aims to support fellow creatives, help make connections and raise awareness. Many new projects and collaborations were first discussed around that table and several members have participated in exhibitions thanks to open calls shared in our whatsapp and facebook groups!
There is a participation fee of 20 aed to help support the community space and can be paid at the venue or online.
Join our “Dubai Craft Jams” facebook group to be part of the community!

Organizer
Glitches & Stitches is a homegrown brand focused on promoting the value of craftsmanship and artisanal skills. In addition to DIY cosmetics, hand embroidery and design workshops, they also host community events for creatives including an Embroidery Club and monthly Craft Jams.
Launched in 2018, G&S is the brainchild of designer Natalya Konforti. After spending 8 years in China’s fast fashion industry designing garments manufactured by the hundreds of thousands, she yearned for the soul & personality of artisanal craftsmanship. Upon moving to Dubai, she decided to leverage the skills honed developing samples to help other ‘design junkies’ become self-sufficient.
