Join us for a festive crafting session where we'll be sewing and painting our own adorable gonks. Scandinavian gnome-like figures with big noses and fluffy beards. Originating from Nordic folklore, gonks (inspired by the nisse or tomte) were believed to protect homes during winter and bring good luck.

Add a personal touch to this charming tradition and take home a handmade gonk to brighten your season!
