✨POV: your kids find a place where they can create for HOURS and there’s no clean up involved for you 😅

We spent the afternoon at The Makery at Boxyard RTP and honestly… this is such a gem for Triangle families.

The Makery is a hands-on creative space created by the team behind Kidzu Children’s Museum, designed for kids, tweens, teens, and even adults to explore STEAM-based creativity through art, crafting, building, and interactive maker projects.

They offer:
✨ open maker sessions
✨ themed take-home projects
✨ workshops + seasonal events
✨ creative tools/materials
✨ robotics + 3D printing experiences
✨ staff-guided activities for all skill levels

Pricing currently starts around:
• Maker’s Choice → $10
• Maker’s Project → $20
• Workshops → $30+ depending on the activity

It’s located right inside Boxyard RTP, so you can easily turn it into a full family outing with coffee, food, music, and space for the kids to explore afterward. 💛

Boxyard RTP even offers ear plugs in the courtyard for anyone sensitive to loud music/sounds. Such a thoughtful touch for kids, elderly guests, and anyone who needs a quieter experience. 🤍

Level up! 🧩🎲🕹️ After an incredible run at Boxyard RTP, Guildhall Games is growing into a new, expanded space just up the road in downtown Durham. Their final day with us is Saturday, July 25.

Since opening here in 2023, @guildhallnc has built something special—a true gathering place for connection, creativity and play. From board game nights to speed puzzling tournaments, they’ve helped shape the inclusive, welcoming community that defines this space.

Now, they’re ready to grow from a single shipping container into 4,000 square feet in @downtowndurham. Congrats to Jake and Nicole! We’re glad to be part of their journey and to see that momentum carry into their next storefront. A true hometown win.

Join us at Boxyard for a few more rounds before they make their move, stop by to explore their collection of games, puzzles, plushies, dice and collectibles, and help us give Guildhall a winning sendoff. 🎉

Happy Mother’s Day to every mom, bonus mom, grandmother, and mother figure who pours love into the next generation 💕✨

Hosting our Mommy & Me mothers day event @boxyardrtp in collaboration with @kindredspirit_candlecompany was such a beautiful reminder that beauty is more than makeup — it’s confidence, connection, and creating memories together 💄👩‍👧
Seeing moms and daughters laugh, learn, and bondfilled our hearts beyond words. Thank you to everyone who came out and made this event so special! 💖

We’ll be @boxyardrtp so even if it rains, we’re covered—literally.

It’s all about community, good vibes, and a little friendly competition. We’d love to see you there 💛
