The Seaport's cobblestoned, waterfront setting is a lovely place to slow down and make something, and this Dimorae Home embroidery workshop offers exactly that — a guided, beginner-friendly session to learn stitching and create your own piece. It's a calming, screen-free afternoon with a tangible takeaway, set in one of downtown's most atmospheric corners near the historic ships and river. For craft lovers or anyone wanting a mindful Sunday by the water, it's a sweet pick.
What to expect
At the Seaport, Dimorae Home guides you through embroidery basics and a project to complete and take home. Expect a small, relaxed group with materials provided, plus the Seaport's shops, restaurants and waterfront to enjoy before or after.
