CraftWork hosted Crafted Conversations with Healdsburg-based artist Alan Cohen, welcoming over 30 guests for an evening of art, stories, and conversation. His sculptural works - built from driftwood and found materials - are now on view in a showcase that rewards slow looking and close attention.

On May 6th, we’re opening our doors for another Crafted Conversations - produced by CraftWork and NoMAD - this time featuring a wonderful local voice: architect and artist Alan B. Cohen. Throughout the evening, Alan will share how he discovers the materials for his sculptures, how each piece comes together, and how architecture and art intersect in his creative life.

CraftWork hosted the first Healdsburg After Dark, launching our new collaboration with Steve Ausburne, who brought along fellow comedians Jalisa Robinson and Ronn Vigh for the evening. The room was full, the energy was generous, and the conversations lively - precisely the sort of event that reminds us why we enjoy bringing people together in the first place.

Last Friday, CraftWork came alive in a whole new way. We teamed up with Fred Astaire Healdsburg Dance for a Valentine’s Day evening of… dance (and wine from local favorite Stuhlmuller!), and the moment the music started, the energy in the space completely shifted!

We said we were a community hub, right? We said we bring Healdsburg to life? Well… it’s time to put our money where our mouth is. We’re kicking off a brand-new series of stand-up comedy nights with one of the best standup comedians in town (in our opinion, in other people’s opinions, and soon, in your opinion too): Steve Ausburne!

We spent two unforgettable CraftWork Conversations evenings with Andy Katz, a true master of photography. His work, stories, and presence reminded us what it means to slow down, look closely, and really see.

Big headlines overseas and a relentless rainstorm at home have made for an eventful start to 2026. At CraftWork, though, it’s warm, busy, and buzzing - with Andy Katz’s photography on full display and a lineup of events ready to enjoy.

2025 was a good one. It started slow, picked up with a lot of rewarding work in the middle, and raced toward the end. We pulled off some pretty great things - solid meetings, good events, and somehow squeezed 80 people into the house for comedy night (still not sure how that happened). 2026? Let’s make it just as good - together.

Shawna Majerus is one of those members who instantly inspire everyone around her. A six-time cancer survivor and parent of a child who faced leukemia, she has turned life’s toughest challenges into a heartfelt mission: helping others rise, realign, and reclaim their power. Honestly, how could you not be in awe of her?

Each winter, through The Presents Project, we “adopt” a local family whose holidays might otherwise pass quietly. This week, we welcomed our family: five people, each with their own hopes and simple, practical needs - a snapshot of an ordinary life. Join us in bringing holiday joy to a Healdsburg family.
