To reserve the entire workshop for your private party, we require a $100 non-refundable rental fee. AR Workshop Ocean Isle has a private party minimum of 15 people from Sunday-Wednesday, and a 20 person minimum from Thursday-Saturday.

Most of our adult projects range from $40-$70 and our youth projects range from $40-$45. View our workshop schedule for specific pricing.

We provide all of the materials, tools, and instruction. Choose your project type (wood or canvas) and your design from our Project Portfolio. Customize your project at the workshop with our designer paints and our line of non-toxic wood stains (no fumes!).

You are welcome to bring in wine, small snacks or appetizers to enjoy at your private events!

Most workshops last from 2-3 hours, depending on the project. Youth parties include a 2 hour workshop time-slot. View our How It Works page for more information! If reserving a table or a private party, we will email you a link for your event that you can send out to your guests to register.

AR Workshop Ocean Isle Beach is owned by Joanne Mayopoulos. Joanne found Anders Ruff a few years ago when they began their Pineville, NC flagship location. She has always had a love for DIY, beginning with scrapbooking, stamping, jewelry making, knitting and crocheting. She never thought owning her own business was possible; however, when she moved to Calabash, NC, the opportunity arose to open an AR Workshop and her hopes and dreams were in front of her! Joanne is so excited to bring the crafty AR Workshop atmosphere to Ocean Isle Beach! She is very excited to help plan and be a part of your next special DIY event!
