Each holiday season the Makers Central studio transforms into one giant artisanal walking market. It’s very rare that they invite the public into the workshop, but when they do, they make sure it’s worth it!

During this open studio weekend, you’ll peruse unique collections of handmade ceramic, paper, wood, concrete, leather, steel, fabric, floral & food creations. Not only that, you’ll get to learn about the kilns, printing presses, forges, lathes and unique processes that are put to use each day to craft these beautiful works of functional art right here in Tarrytown.

While you’re at it, try a sample of beer or bourbon from one of our favorite local breweries or distilleries. From beer to bread, coffee to bourbon, there’s lots to explore and taste!
