Travel Tip: Make Your Own Hotel Package

Locations in this article:  Louisville, KY

It’s one thing to passively look at art in a museum. But what I like about working studios is that not only can you see the artists at work, you can also learn how to make something yourself!

In Louisville, Kentucky, the Flame Run Glass Studio is a 12,000-square-foot space that combines working artist studios and a gallery display.

Not only can you interact with the artists while they’re working, but you can also get a hands-on lesson in making your own art.

The studio also has a relationship with the nearby 21C Hotel, so you can book a stay and get a free glass-blowing class.

Thomas Moser wood furniture makers have a Customer in Residence program with the Harraseeket Inn in Freeport, Maine. You’ll spend a week in the woodshop working alongside master cabinet makers, learning how to create your own piece of high-end furniture.

And in the Great Smoky Mountains, Blackberry Farm is luxury property that has all the outdoor adventure you expect…but also plenty of make-your-own adventures too.

We’re talking making your own preserves and cheese, harvesting ingredients, and making meals with local produce.
