Reviews for Custom Art and Crafting Event: Paint, Sketch & Create with Your Crew

Loved my experience with Cook & Co! Such a thoughtful event with so many whimsical and personal touches that really made it feel magical. Katrina as a hostess just goes above and beyond, she is literally a DREAM. She worked very closely with everyone to get every detail right. Felt like i was at a friend's house for a dinner party than a catered event. Highly would do again.

Katrina is the dream planner! I went to a painting class she organized and had the time of my life. I have zero artistic skills and she was so patient, encouraging and fun while teaching me. Every detail was so thoughtfully planned out. Katrina knows how to make people feel instantly welcomed and calm. Event skills are 100/100

Katrina does such a beautiful and inventive job with her events. She is truly creating one of a kind experiences and cultivating spaces for connection!

Katrina knows how to make every event a truly special experience for each person in attendance. The way that she hosts brings a welcoming, cozy, and inspiring energy, and she manages the perfect combination of leading the conversations, ensuring everyone feels included, and going with the flow. Her dinner parties are an amazing opportunity to share a meal with new people - I loved swapping stories with people from different backgrounds and hearing their perspectives and histories, and the menu was super creative and delicious. My personal favorite (so far) was the tarot reading and wine pairing!

I cannot speak highly enough about the incredible events I have attended, hosted by Cook & Co. The first event that I still tell people about all the time was in January 2024, where I was able to attend a specially curated Salem Spice Trade themed dinner party. Katrina welcomed us into a historic home right off of the Common in Salem, MA where she cooked a 4 course meal, all inspired by and interwoven with the incredible rich history of this city’s maritime trading past. While dinner was being made, she invited esteemed Salem Historian Vijay Joyce to speak about the history of the Salem Spice trade and the integral part Salem played in building the US economy after the Revolutionary War. He also gave us a tour of the house we were visiting and spoke about the original owner’s past. It was such a remarkable and intimate event, with amazing food and great conversation. Every detail was so perfectly curated and I have so much respect for Katrina and Vijay’s knowledge and hospitality. I showed up a stranger, having just moved to the city recently and was looking for something I could do on my own, and left that evening with an incredible story and a few new friends. If you’re looking for a memorable, rich evening, I couldn’t recommend Cook & Co. more!
