Events & Workshops
Gather. Create. Experience Something Different.
Artables experiences are designed around the simple pleasure of bringing people together. Explore Persian culture around a beautifully set tea table, learn the art of naturally leavened bread, or spend an afternoon creating edible art. Each experience combines Sarvin’s knowledge and creativity with warm hospitality, beautiful food, and plenty of time to connect.
Step inside past Artables gatherings—from Persian tea tables and hands-on workshops to the beautiful creations guests make along the way.
Persian Tea Culture Experience
An Invitation Into Persian Hospitality
Tea in Persian culture is far more than a beverage. It is a ritual of welcome, generosity, conversation, and connection.
Sarvin brings those traditions to the table through an immersive experience featuring traditionally brewed tea and an abundant, beautifully styled selection of Persian and Persian-inspired savory bites, sweets, and accompaniments.
Around the Persian Table
As guests enjoy the table, Sarvin shares the traditions surrounding Persian tea—how it is brewed and served, its role in everyday life and celebrations, and the customs of welcoming guests.
Cultural stories, beautiful serving pieces, and thoughtful details create an experience that is meant to be both enjoyed and remembered.
Make It Your Own
For occasions that don't require the full cultural experience, Sarvin can create a customized Persian Tea or Masala Chai Service with sweets, savory accompaniments, or a more elaborate spread. Menus, presentation, and service can be tailored to your gathering. Ideal for showers, private celebrations, cultural gatherings, corporate and team events, and special occasions.
Sourdough Bread-Making Workshop
From Starter to Sourdough
Get your hands in the dough and discover what actually goes into creating a beautiful naturally leavened loaf. During this approximately three-hour workshop, Sarvin takes you through the process step by step—from caring for your starter and developing the dough to fermentation, stretching and folding, shaping, proofing, scoring, and baking.
Learn to Read the Dough
This isn't about memorizing a recipe. You'll learn what to look and feel for throughout the process so you can better understand your dough and continue baking confidently at home. No previous sourdough experience is necessary.
You'll Take Home
Your own prepared dough to bake the following day, sourdough starter, a starter jar with an elastic marker, written instructions, and access to Sarvin’s instructional videos for future reference. And because spending three hours together should be enjoyable, Sarvin serves a selection of her sweet and savory bites and refreshments—including Persian tea—throughout the workshop.
Edible Art & Decorating Workshop
Come Make Something Beautiful
Buttercream, wafer paper, piping bags—and permission to play.
Sarvin’s hands-on decorating workshops introduce guests to techniques for transforming cakes, cupcakes, and other treats into edible works of art.
What Will We Create?
Each workshop has its own theme. You might create delicate wafer-paper flowers, practice buttercream and piping techniques, decorate beach-inspired cakelets, or explore seasonal and celebration designs. Sarvin demonstrates each technique step by step before helping you create your own interpretation. No decorating experience is necessary.
More Than a Decorating Class
There is time to practice, experiment, ask questions, and enjoy the process without worrying about making everything perfect.
Sweet and savory bites, refreshments, and Persian tea are served along the way, making the gathering itself part of the experience.
You'll leave with your own edible creations, new techniques to try at home, and hopefully a few stories from around the table.
Unique Experiences
Your People. Your Occasion. Your Experience.
Artables workshops and experiences can also be created specifically for your group. Birthdays • Bridal & Baby Showers • Women's Gatherings • Private Celebrations • Corporate Events • Team Experiences • Cultural Gatherings
