Location Details The Lunenburg Makery is currently an online platform for learning, making and gathering around craft. Based on the overwhelming success of the wholesale and online end of our business the decision was made in October 2019 to close the physical Lincoln Street shop in order to focus on export.
The Lunenburg Makery is currently an online platform for learning, making and gathering around craft. In 2012 we opened a multi-purpose craft space in the historic Burns Block building including sewing facilities, a library and reading area, a retail space and studios. We offered workshops and courses as well as drop-in projects, sew-by-the-hour, evening craft circles, and studio space.
Over the years we've drawn on a rich community of Makers for our instructor base and work with a small group of creative and passionate staff to keep things going on a day-to-day basis. Needle felting kits were added to our established felt sewing kit line-up in 2015 and the collection has grown steadily ever since! Based on the overwhelming success of the wholesale and online end of our business the decision was made in October 2019 to close the physical Lincoln Street shop in order to focus on export.
