Disco & Drink Ornament Workshop

TICKETS HERE: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1977039720023?aff=oddtdtcreator

✨ DISCO BALL ORNAMENT MAKING CLASS ✨
Monday, December 16th • 7:00 PM • $40
All materials included + 1 drink ticket

Get ready to sparkle, babes. We’re hosting a Disco Ball Ornament Making Class at Riffs, and it’s the perfect mix of cozy holiday vibes and a little bit of our signature chaos (the fun kind).

For $40, you’ll get everything you need to craft your own shiny, glittery, look-at-me holiday ornaments—whether you’re making a heartfelt gift for someone you love or just decorating your tree like a festive disco inferno. You’ll also get one drink ticket to keep those creative gears well-lubricated.

We’ll have festive movies playing, hot glue guns heating up, and enough sparkles to make your apartment look like a Christmas elf exploded (you’re welcome).

Come hang, sip, craft, and actually enjoy a holiday activity that doesn’t involve awkward small talk with coworkers.

Spots are limited and this one always sells out—grab your ticket before your friend who “loves crafts now” beats you to it.
