DeeDee Catron calls Las Vegas home. She has designed and been an artist for many years. She has taught internationally, and I am proud to call her a friend of mine. I am so excited that she is teaching at Crafty AF this year!! 

To ensure you have the best experience, we provide aprons and a convenient hand washing sink for your use. However, we recommend wearing clothes that you don’t mind getting a bit of paint on, just in case creativity takes a colorful turn. We hope you enjoy your time creating and expressing yourself in our vibrant space!
