If you’re staying in Riyadh this June and looking to do something warm, hands-on, and a little bit personal, the city has some lovely options waiting. The handicraft workshops in Riyadh this summer give you space to create, to learn something by doing, and to be part of stories shaped by people, ingredients, materials, and place. This guide brings you into the heart of Riyadh handicraft workshops happening in the last week of June 2025.
Artisanal Drinks with Molt Mixology in Riyadh
Make your own craft beverage with ingredients that feel close to home. Dates, herbs, and honey—all used with intention. This session is guided by mixologists who help you explore taste through memory, technique, and storytelling. You walk away with something you made with your own hands and a new way of thinking about drinks.
- Location: Riyadh Oases
- Date: June 25
- Price: 150 SAR
Create Your Own Moving Art Sculptures at Riyadh Oases
Step into the Butterfly Biosphere and begin with a sketch. Notice how shapes emerge. Then build them into something that moves. Paper, thread, and natural materials come together in a quiet, playful space. This workshop is open to all ages and feels as much about observation as it is about art.
- Location: Riyadh Oases
- Date: June 28
- Price: 120 SAR
Coffee School: The AeroPress Ritual
Spend a few calm hours learning the AeroPress brewing method. Hosted with Roasting House, this session is part coffee, part ritual. It’s a slow process, focused on taste, patience, and the small choices that shape a cup. You’ll compare AeroPress to other methods and find a rhythm that fits your style.
- Location: Riyadh Oases
- Date: June 30
- Price: 150 SAR
HungerStation One-on-One: Food Startups
If you have ideas in the food space, this session is a good place to start. It’s a personal 30-minute meeting with a HungerStation representative. You’ll have time to ask what matters most—about delivery, operations, growth, and what comes next. Space is limited, but the format is simple and focused.
- Location: Riyadh Oases
- Date: June 30
- Price: Free (with registration)
Year-Round Cultural Workshops in Diriyah
These experiences are available throughout the year, but they feel especially grounding in summer. They offer slow time, shared craft, and quiet connection with Saudi tradition.
Asiri Art Workshop with a Local Artist
Learn how women in the Asir region have used art to speak across generations. You’ll choose your own design and paint an Asiri pattern, guided by an artist who shares stories along the way. The experience offers more than color. It carries memory.
- Location: Diriyah
- Price: from 290 SAR per person
- Duration: 3 hours
Sadu Weaving Workshop
This workshop opens a door into Bedouin life. You’ll explore the patterns of Sadu weaving and the meanings behind the designs. With each thread, you’re connecting to something that’s been passed down. And as you work on your own piece, you carry part of that with you.
- Location: Diriyah
- Price: from 380 SAR per person
- Duration: 2 hours
Pottery Workshop with a Local Artist
Work with clay the old way. A local Saudi artist will guide you through shaping and decorating your own pottery. There’s rhythm in the process and a kind of stillness that settles in as you work. You’ll take your piece home, but also a feeling that you shaped something with care.
- Location: Diriyah
- Price: from 250 SAR per person
- Duration: 2 hours
For the Joy of Making, and the Stories That Come With It
You don’t need to travel far this season to feel inspired. Sometimes, all it takes is stepping into a room with unfamiliar tools, meeting people you wouldn’t have met otherwise, or shaping something slowly with your own hands. This summer, the handicraft workshops in Riyadh hold space for that.
They’re about small acts of pouring, weaving, painting, and sculpting that bring you into the present moment. If you’re spending June in Riyadh, let it be a time for learning that doesn’t feel like learning. Let it be a season of trying something new just because it feels good to try.
