Join us in the Barrel Room at DESTIHL Beer Hall for a cozy fall evening of creativity with Buttercupp Candles. For $40, you’ll receive everything you need to design and pour your own fall-scented soy candle, with your choice of vessel, to take home.

Doors open at 5:45pm, and class runs from 6-8pm. If you stick around the Beer Hall until 9:00pm, your candle will be ready to take home that night. Otherwise, we’ll safely hold your finished candle overnight, packaged for next-day pickup.

Space is limited, so reserve your spot for this hands-on fall experience.

Shop local Sunday, October 12th, from 10am-2pm at our outdoor market featuring goods from artisans, craftspeople, and local businesses! Many NEW vendors will be set up on the lawn with a diverse selection of items so you can find something unique for yourself or to give as a gift! Enjoy live music while you shop, 12-2pm, featuring Erin, Nathan & Chico.
