Craft Camp
Craft Camp Antipolo is a one-day getaway where we slow down, take time for ourselves, connect with our surroundings, and create with our hands. To nurture the creative spirit, we’ve sought out beautiful spots up in the boondocks of Antipolo for a day of craft exploration. Breathe in fresh air, learn about the local crafts, savour delicious meals, and create beautiful things. We’d love for you to join us at this creative retreat.Day Camp Itinerary:
Your day begins with a hearty breakfast in a Swiss chalet paired with the first art workshop of the day. Be overwhelmed with nature and inspiration with a trip to the country’s most beautiful museum. A healthy lunch spread will be served in a pottery studio cafe, where you can watch craft demos, and do some souvenir shopping. Enjoy local delicacies for afternoon snacks, and get creative in the afternoon with relaxing craft workshops.
