Get Crafty in the Heart of Johannesburg

Crafty Corner offers a range of creativity classes and workshops to suit every skill level, from complete beginners to advanced crafters. Whether you want to learn a new hobby, deepen a skill, or spend a Saturday making something with your hands, there’s a class here for you. Because every class is small and hands-on, you get real guidance from experienced makers, not just a demonstration.

All our classes are hosted from our Greymont, Johannesburg base, across our three creative spaces. Have a look at what’s on offer below, and click through to the class that interests you for full details, dates and booking information.

Community and Corporate Training Across South Africa

Our regular classes run from our Greymont, Johannesburg base, but our training doesn’t stop there. Crafty Corner also travels to run craft skills training in communities, workplaces and organisations across South Africa. So if your company or NGO wants to bring beading, sewing, candle making or another craft skill to a community outside Johannesburg, get in touch and we’ll come to you.
