- Kristen EstelaOwnerAs a former educator, employee engagement guru and with nearly two decades of event planning experience, I have dedicated my career to creating engaging, meaningful experiences for diverse audiences. My passion for events runs deep—it’s rooted in family and the joy of bringing people together. While I’ve worked on large-scale events, I’ve come to cherish the magic of smaller, more intimate gatherings—those moments that truly shape our memories. Through Workshop, I’m on a mission to redefine the community engagement experience. My goal is to create lasting, joy-filled moments for people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life. I see an opportunity to innovate, elevate, and modernize the way we learn, gather and celebrate. My expertise allows me to thoughtfully design programs that cater to all ages—from children’s workshops to adult gatherings—fostering creativity, connection, and celebration. Workshop is more than just a space; it’s a place where people can gather, play, learn, and create truly meaningful memories. I’ve found my joy in being a host to these memorable moments and I encourage you to find your joy with us.
- Amanda SpillaneOwnerThroughout my HR career, I discovered that event management was not only one of my greatest strengths, but also a true passion. Whether organizing team-building activities, Bring Your Kid to Work Day, company-wide conferences, or networking events, I embraced every opportunity to bring people together. The magic of these events wasn’t just in the logistics—it was in witnessing connections form, ideas spark, and individuals grow through shared experiences. What brought me the most joy was creating moments where people could share their stories, build meaningful relationships, and develop both personally and professionally. My love for supporting others and contributing to impactful experiences was always at the heart of my work. Whether managing an event or simply offering a listening ear, my goal has always been to make people feel heard, valued, and empowered. For me, Workshop is more than just a space for learning—it’s a place where people feel seen, supported, and inspired. My goal is to cultivate an environment where individuals can grow, find joy, and connect with others in authentic and meaningful ways.

I hosted my college roommate’s bachelorette party at The Workshop, and it was absolutely perfect. She wanted something different and meaningful, and this experience exceeded everyt...
hing she imagined. We did the candle-making workshop, which was such a fun and unique activity for a bachelorette. Kristen handled every detail seamlessly — the event was incredibly organized, stress-free, and thoughtfully planned from start to finish. She truly made the day feel so special for the bride and the entire group. The Workshop itself is beautiful and welcoming, and the overall experience felt elevated and personal. I couldn’t recommend this enough for bridal showers, bachelorettes, or any celebration looking for something memorable and well-executed.
