Experience Details

What It Is

Rug tufting is a textile art process where yarn is guided through a backing fabric to build a soft, textured design. It is part design and part motion, as you learn to control lines, fill shapes, and balance color while your rug comes to life.

In our San Jose experience, the focus is on emotional payoff and smooth hosting. It works as a standout date idea and as a high-energy team building workshop for groups up to 60. Guests leave with something real, a custom rug piece they made with their own hands.
