CorrectPort Atelier began in a small terracotta studio overlooking the Pacific, where a handful of bead lovers decided to make the ancient practice of weaving accessible to modern hands.
In 2014, founder Lena Volkov opened a single table workshop in Sausalito. The first students arrived with nothing but curiosity and left with finished cuffs and a new sense of calm. Word spread. More tables appeared.
Today our sunlit studio hosts eight resident makers and welcomes over twelve hundred students each year from every continent.
