Love homemade pizza but wish your crust was a little less… homemade?

If you’ve battled soggy bottoms, thick or dense crust, dough that springs back when you try to stretch it, or pizza that never quite gets that chewy, bubbly pizzeria-style edge, this class is for you.

Join Chef Jamelah for That’s Amore! Pizza, a fun, hands-on class all about creating better pizza at home. You’ll learn the simple techniques that make the difference: how fermentation develops flavor and texture, how to stretch dough without losing those beautiful air pockets, how to avoid an overloaded, soggy pizza, and how to get the best possible crust from your home oven.

Then comes the best part: we cook, we eat, and we enjoy.

On the menu: hand-stretched artisan pizza, homemade garlic knots, savory pizza rolls, and a fresh salad to round out the meal.

Come hungry, roll up your sleeves, and discover why great pizza is equal parts good ingredients, good technique, and a little amore.

No pizza-making experience necessary—just bring your appetite.

The Art of Gathering: Moss Art & Cinnamon Twist Bread

Featuring Second Nature Design

Step away from the holiday hustle and spend an afternoon creating something beautiful—and delicious!

Join us for a hands-on experience where nature, food, and creativity come together. In collaboration with Second Nature Design, you'll create your own 12 × 12-inch preserved moss wall art piece, bringing a touch of nature into your home.

Then, we'll head into the kitchen to make homemade cinnamon twist bread, perfect for sharing during the holiday season. 

Enjoy freshly baked samples and light snacks while you create, and take home your own full-size cinnamon twist loaf, ready to bake the next day or freeze for a future holiday gathering.

No artistic or baking experience necessary. Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to get creative!

All supplies, ingredients, and refreshments are included. You'll leave with two handmade creations—one to display and one to share.
