Our instructor was not only engaging but also incredibly knowledgeable, making the process of crafting cocktails both fun and approachable. The setting was warm and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for learning and enjoying the evening. After the class, we stayed for more drinks because we couldn’t get enough of the fantastic ambiance and expertly crafted cocktails. It was such a memorable way to spend time together, and we all walked away with new skills and a greater appreciation for mixology. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a unique and fun night out! + more

Ikebana Class: Fun Beginner Lesson
This was an anniversary gift for my partner and I. What a wonderful class.

I enjoyed this mosaic class! Located in a convenient spot in Brooklyn, we were given just the right amount of guidance whilst also having lots of unguided time where we could explore our creativity and have a chat. The little mosaic pieces were fun to work with and I’m pleased with my creation, I gave it as a gift for my mum and she loves it (I’m not a good plant parent myself).

We went for a friend's bday present experience. The instructor was great! He demonstrated what we had to do and made sure we were on track. We had a fun time, and the macarons came out well! Thanks for a great experience!
Alexis Molinari
Went as a gift for my boyfriend’s birthday! It was great. We had a lot of fun and our dumplings were delicious. Our teacher was very informative, nice, and funny. He continually came around to offer individualized help and did a great demo! All around it was romantic and fun :)
Katie Fiedler
The instructor was very knowledgeable and passionate about perfume making and it made the class so enjoyable! Not only did we learn a lot to help us pick perfumes out in the future but we got to create our own personalized scent to take home with the help of the instructor!

This class was incredible! I bought the class as a surprise gift for my partner and we each made one knife each. Our instructor Arlene was so helpful, funny, inspiring, and had a great taste in music. The effort was somehow both easier and harder than expected (my arms are spaghetti), but the teacher was available to help if you were struggling.

Sophie Bronsil
I bought this class as a gift for a friend of mine and we had the best time. We had never done pottery before and yet we managed to make a piece that we were proud of. The guidance and support of the teacher is awesome as it is a small group so she has time to come help you whenever you need. I would definitely recommend and I am looking forward to going back!

Eric Lipenholtz
Great class and perfect for a nice date night. I booked it as a Christmas present for my wife and we sat next to a great couple that we got along with. I would highly recommend trying it out!
Nina Cheng
Great class with helpful instructors. I took a friend for a birthday gift and it was fun! Everyone was new to pottery and had the chance to make something they could later take home.
Anonymized ClassBento student
I brought my husband here for his birthday to make a survival knife. I did the buddy up option since he would be the one mostly working on it and it was great. Honestly, the best time ever. He enjoyed the entire process and we may even go back to create more items! Our instructor was pretty cool and really sweet, made sure we were getting our desired shape of the knife. Our end result looked amazing! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for unique gift ideas or date nights!
Evan Jaffee
My partner Beth, who spent several years living in France after college (and still speaks French fluently) had long wanted to learn how to how make croissants so I purchased this class for her birthday. In all the years we have been together I think the class may have been her favorite birthday present thus far which says something. Our instructor Emily was incredibly patient, friendly and wasn't pretentious like so many other professional bakers in New York are. You could also tell she was passionate about her craft which is always great to see.

Gina Martinelli
The tickets were a gift for my sister for us to take the class with her two daughters. Several busy months later, we were able to schedule it. It was such a fun class! The instructor is personable, knowledgeable, and very engaging. I would definitely recommend this class!
Amanda Cepeda
Took my mom for s mother's day gift and it was very cute and great small class allowed for extra attention. The instructor was very sweet and well informed!
Orri Cohen
Very fun and easy to learn. Great birthday gift for my wife and I to do together.
Pj Linen
We had a great time in our class, it was a perfect birthday present for my boyfriend. He felt like he was on the show Forged in Fire and had a great time. It was a great beginner class, we could do things ourselves but always had our teacher right there to answer any questions or guide us in the right direction. We’ve already talked about doing a next level class!
Experience Gift Ideas for Her NYC
Why experience gift cards make the best gift ideas
It’s hard finding gifts for women they’ll actually use. When you have to find something new for the person who has everything, experience gift ideas let you avoid the same old same old. A gift card will impress especially since the recipient can choose the kind of fun they’d like to have, from getting hands-on in a paint and sip class or relaxing in a hand building pottery class. Our adult classes are perfect for the beginner and you can make it a memorable date night or a way to get your friend group together to celebrate your friend or partner.
Gift an experience if your mom lives far away. With experience gift cards, they can choose the time and place along with the type of activity to try. We have hundreds of online experiences with DIY kits that make it easy to jump into a Zoom call and get cracking on something creative. You can join in from your location and share the fun!
Unique Experience Gifts for Women
Need things to do in New York City? It’s full of artists and teachers and getting an experience gift is a great way to take advantage of their wealth of knowledge. You can take a knife making class from an expert craftsman and learn this skill in a studio with all the materials and tools you need. Or learn how to make macarons in a professional kitchen with a pastry chef and impress everyone you know with your colorful bakes.
Our classes are located all over the city from upper Manhattan to Brooklyn to Staten Island, so you can find the right one no matter where you’re located in the city. It’s not easy finding special gifts for her but you have so many choices for getting hands-on with a sushi making class or getting centered with a meditation experience.
Unforgettable Gift Experience Ideas
It hasn’t been easy being separated from friends and family over the past couple of years. With NYC gift experience ideas, you can plan a blowout birthday party or memorable anniversary celebration that everyone can appreciate. Whether you want an intimate gathering or a blowout bash for 100 guests, you can plan the perfect event with our workshops.
Want to get your girlfriends together for some rest and relaxation? Try a scented candle making class where you’ll learn how to melt and pour wax into vessels while choosing your signature scent. Or make bath bombs and body care products and bring home your goodies to have a spa day in your home or hotel room. You can take your selfcare day to the next level with a sound healing and meditation class, where you’ll learn how to destress with an experienced teacher.
No matter what you’re looking for you’ll find amazing ways to show your appreciation for mothers, aunts, friends, and partners with experience gifts for her in NYC!
