In the Space

Environment Curation.

The Hobbiest is designed to be a space where members are fully present with the experience in front of them. To preserve this atmosphere, we keep the environment intentionally simple:

Photos may be invited by the instructor during the final moments of class. We ask that members remain mindful of the privacy and experience of others.

  • No electronics or WiFi.
  • Adults-only environment; guests must be 18+ to enroll in sessions.
  • No smoking or alcohol.
  • No outside food.
