Coming soon to Camp North End: In-person SkillPop classes with Charlotte experts
SkillPop is switching things up. Starting Wednesday, Feb. 22, you’ll be able to attend its expert-led classes and workshops in person at Camp North End.
Haley Bohon founded the company as a pop-up in 2015, but since 2020, SkillPop Anywhere has served customers virtually with classes on cooking, photography and knitting, as well as business-focused workshops on networking, sales tactics and more.
Now, the company is transitioning into a hybrid model. In addition to the Camp North End classes, SkillPop will also offer a subscription-based “Class of the Month” for virtual learners.
“It’s our hope that those who love learning online through SkillPop Anywhere will join us at Class of the Month. We also know that many have been eagerly awaiting the return of our in-person classes and we’re beyond thrilled to host classes in person again at our new home base at Camp North End,” Bohon said.
Tommy Mann, development director of Camp North End, said, “Camp North End was created to be a place where people gather and grow in community, which aligns directly with SkillPop’s mission. We’re excited that Camp tenants and visitors alike will have even more opportunities to pursue lifelong learning with SkillPop’s arrival.”
ONE THING TO KNOW: SkillPop Anywhere classes will only continue until the end of February. The $24 single-class options — now including Podcasting Essentials, Valentine’s Cocktails and Starting a Spring Garden — will go away and the new programs will take over.
