Welcome to our Darien, CT studio!
Welcome to Make-Modern Darien, our original studio, on Boston Post Road in the heart of town. This cheerful, light-filled space is where the magic began, and it continues to host our full lineup of classes, camps, parties, and workshops for kids and adults. Come see why Darien families (and plenty from nearby towns!) have made this their go-to creative escape.
Weekly Classes in Darien
Our weekly classes are where creativity becomes a habit and a lifelong skill. With sewing, crafting, crochet, knitting and needlepoint (and let’s not forget mahjong for adults), each session is designed to build confidence, sharpen technique, and spark joy along the way. Whether you’re five or fifty, there’s something powerful about carving out time each week to make with your hands and create something beautiful. It’s not just a class—it’s your creative reset.
Darien Birthday Parties
Celebrate your child’s big day with a party that’s as stylish as it is fun. At Make-Modern, every birthday includes a welcome craft, a show-stopping main project, fabulous favors and decor, and a custom soundtrack to keep the vibes high. You bring the snacks; we’ll handle the magic. Just choose your date and studio, and our event team will take it from there—easy, fun, and totally unforgettable.
Looking for a creative spark outside the everyday routine? Our Darien camps and workshops offer joyful, hands-on experiences for makers of all ages—whether it’s a single day during school break, a seasonal holiday workshop, a week-long summer camp, or a Visiting Artist workshop led by renowned designers. Each program blends skill-building with serious fun, giving you the chance to make beautiful projects, explore new techniques, and walk away with something you’re proud to keep, gift, or display.
