Let your hands do the talking — make, mend, and create in the heart of the desert. 

Join us at Central Craft from June 20th-26th for over 15 workshops during and after the Alice Springs Beanie Festival weekend (June 20-23), for all ages and skill levels - from crochet to eco-dyeing, felting, weaving & more!
