Questions, answered.
Will I be the only non-Dutch person there?
Unlikely. Most workshops run in English and attract a mix of locals, expats and visitors.
Is it a good way to make friends in Amsterdam?
Yes. Two to four hours of making something together is a surprisingly good way to get past small talk.
