At Home Potsticker Making Class

Hosted by Crispy Edge
Online Event
Tickets · $13.99 - $24.99 via Eventbrite
Join us for our At Home Potsticker Class!
Hello Our Potsticker Apprentices,
One of our favorite events to host has been our potsitcker making class. It has created a place for us to all come together and do something we are very passionate about. Making potstickers and teaching others about it.
Considering COVID-19, we will be unable to host our class at Crispy Edge BUT we have another idea in mind to still share the potsticker love while respecting social distancing.
Introducing:
Crispy Edge @ Home Potsticker Class
"from our quarantined kitchen to yours"
In response to our social distancing responsiblities and keeping our community safe, Crispy Edge is getting creative and offering an at home potsticker class. How is such an awesome thing possible?
You will be able to pickup -or- have delivered all the essential ingredients you'll need, along with a delicious 14oz bags of potstickers of your choice. You and yours (kids and pets love to cook) can hangout for a super fun online course, hosted by Crispy Edge founder David Dresner in his kitchen.
Join us for an hour of dough-filled fun!
Stay Well Out there and hope to see you in class!

Q: I'm in! Sign me up for every day of the week!
A: Hold your horses! You can book your family bubble once a month so everybody gets a chance to attend an event.
Q: What are the safety measures?
A: Your family will be required to wear masks--yes even the kids. We will most likely be singing songs which projects germs further so all family members will need to be masked. Your family will be seated 12 feet away from the storytellers. The storytellers will be wearing face shields so that you can hear them read and sing, but still be protected. The event will be held privately in Heritage Hall. We will be filming the event for our virtual story times.
