🌶️ Chile Pepper LED Neon Sign Workshop

Light it up. Build it yourself.

Create your own glowing chile pepper LED neon sign in this hands-on workshop. You’ll learn how to lay out your design, bend and route LED neon flex, and practice basic soldering skills to bring your sign to life. These are foundational techniques you can use to create custom neon-style pieces in the future.

This class is beginner-friendly, but detailed enough to feel like a real build. If you’ve never soldered before, don’t worry — we’ll guide you step-by-step. You’ll leave with a finished, working chile pepper sign and the confidence to tackle more advanced designs later.

For those who have taken a neon class with us before, we’re also offering a custom design option. You can collaborate with the instructor ahead of time to create your own sign concept to build during the workshop. This option requires advance coordination, so please sign up early to allow time for design planning.

You will learn:

  • Basic soldering techniques

  • How to lay out and mount an LED neon sign

  • Routing and securing LED neon flex

  • Final assembly and finishing techniques

Ages: 16+
Custom Option: $60
