Here's the schedule of FREE workshops happening at Home Depot in 2026!

By Kate Fletcher, Macaroni KID Binghamton Publisher January 7, 2026

Get ready for another year of creative fun with Home Depot's free Kids Workshops! These hands-on events are a fantastic way to spark your child's imagination and introduce them to basic DIY skills.

What to Expect:

  • • Free and Fun: Each month, Home Depot offers a different project, ranging from building birdhouses to creating whimsical decorations. All materials are provided, and the workshops are designed to be both engaging and educational.
  • • First Saturday of Every Month: Workshops typically run from 9am-12pm on the first Saturday of each month.
  • • Ages 4-11: These workshops are geared towards kids ages 4-11, making them perfect for preschoolers, elementary school students, and even some tweens. With a helping hand and close supervision, toddlers can also enjoy the experience.
  • • Sign Up in Advance: While Home Depot usually has plenty of kits available at the Johnson City location, signing up online in advance is always a good idea to ensure there are enough supplies for your child.
