Hire a Hobby

Trying a new hobby can be intimidating, and often costly. Hiring a kit from the library is a great way to give something new a go, without the commitment of purchasing tools and supplies without knowing if you will enjoy it!

DIY Pottery Kits

We have DIY pottery kits available for loan! Make your own plant pot or trinket bowl from scratch with Jam Factory associate and ceramicist, Hannah Vorrath-Pajak.

Using your library card, you can borrow a free ceramics kit, including a video tutorial + everything you need to craft a hand-built plant pot at home.

Borrow two kits and get DIY-ing with a friend, or enjoy solo as you unwind with your favourite tunes and a cup of tea!
