Ar Workshop Ankeny

Hello there! Welcome to AR Workshop Ankeny located at the District in Prairie Trail! Jeff & Laura Reed opened AR Workshop in December of 2017 and continue to enjoy bringing DIY to you! Jeff, an Ankeny grad, and Laura love living and being a part of the tight knit Ankeny community. Jeff and Laura keep busy with their daughter, Delaney, and another on the way! In their spare time when they aren’t at the workshop or getting your DIY experience ready for you they enjoy spending time as a family or celebrating all life has to offer with family and friends. Our workshops feature step by step instruction for creating charming and unique home decor pieces and beyond. Our projects are customizable and will teach you techniques that you can use for doing your own DIY crafts at home! Most importantly, our workshops are fun! Really! We have music, bring your own wine and beer, and encourage laughing and dancing while you work on your project! We have hundreds of designs and a variety of projects to choose from! Whether the wood projects are your jam or canvas takes the cake- we’ve got something for you! We’ve even added chunky knit blankets and might even have a little something up our sleeve for Fall of 2019! Stay tuned! Have a custom request? That is what we are here for! Our team of designers will create the perfect design for you to complete in one of our open workshops! Have a bachelorette party or bridal shower you are planning? How about a youth birthday party? Want to do a team building or a private event? We’ve got you covered! Contact us at ankeny@arworkshop.com for more information and to chat with Laura herself! We can’t wait to see you in the workshop!
