Get ready to roll, sprinkle, and swirl your way into a delicious holiday tradition!

The Crested Butte Museum is bringing a little Slovenian magic to the mountains with a hands-on Potica Baking Workshop on Tuesday, December 8, from 6–8 PM.

Learn the art of making potica (pronounced poh-TEE-tsah), the beloved Slovenian nut-filled pastry famous for its tender dough and beautiful, sweet, spiraled layers.

This old-world favorite has deep roots in Crested Butte’s immigrant heritage, making it the perfect recipe for a cozy evening of baking, storytelling, and holiday cheer.

Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just love a good homemade treat, come roll up your sleeves, get a little flour on your hands, and celebrate a delicious piece of local history.
