History

The Homestead Atlanta began offering scrappy hands-on workshops in donated spaces around Atlanta in 2013. Founded by Kimberly Coburn in partnership with Georgia Organics and some of the city’s most knowledgeable artisans, herbalists, growers, fermenters, and more, we’ve watched people discover skills that became lifelong pursuits or forge a bottle opener for the simple joy of moving metal with their hands and a hammer.

Since the beginning…

Since our first workshops on a chilly March weekend, we’ve seen our educational partners create amazing community resources, and we couldn’t be prouder of them. Even though we’ll no longer be offering or promoting workshops, we’re so thrilled they have helped make Atlanta a thriving hub of handmade wisdom.

Who knows? We might swing in with some kind of event or shindig from time to time or musings on what it means to work with your hands, so be sure to stay in touch. In the meantime, check out our growing list of resources to find out where you can get your hands dirty in ATL and beyond!

 
 

Let’s keep in touch!

Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love.

It will not lead you astray.
