Pinners is the perfect place for Antsy Nancy. The two-day event brings together people who love to learn, create, cook, craft, shop, and try something new through more than 100 creative classes and a marketplace featuring hundreds of businesses.

Throughout the conference, you’ll find the Antsy Nancy team at our booth, where we’ll be sharing more about what we do in Tucson — and where we’re going next.
Since opening our doors in 2021, Antsy Nancy has grown into a place where guests can learn new skills, connect with others, celebrate special occasions, and simply have fun. Our programming spans cooking, baking, arts, crafts, camps, private parties, corporate team building, and special events.
Now, we’re ready to bring the Antsy Nancy experience to new communities through franchising.
And we’re especially excited to meet prospective franchise owners in the Phoenix and Scottsdale area.
Could Antsy Nancy Be Your Next Chapter?
If you’re the person who is always cooking something new, hosting the party, planning the get-together, trying the latest craft, or bringing people together around a table, we’d love to meet you.
We’re looking for entrepreneurs who love to cook, bake, craft, entertain, and create memorable experiences for others — and who are interested in turning those passions into a fulfilling business of their own.
Owning an Antsy Nancy franchise is an opportunity to build a business centered around something joyful: helping people learn, connect, celebrate, and make memories together.
Stop by our Pinners booth to meet the team, learn more about the Antsy Nancy business model, and talk with us about what it could look like to bring Antsy Nancy to your community.
You can also learn more about the franchise opportunity and begin the process on our Antsy Nancy Franchise Application page.

We won’t just be exhibiting — we’ll be teaching, too!
On Saturday, November 14, Antsy Nancy Founder and CEO Heidi Yribar will take the stage for two cooking demonstrations:
1:00 p.m. — How to Make Pasta
Learn the art of making fresh pasta from scratch, including techniques for mixing, kneading, rolling, and shaping pasta — plus tips for creating favorites such as fettuccine, ravioli, and tortellini.

4:00 p.m. — How to Make Tamales
Discover the process of making authentic tamales from scratch, from preparing the masa and flavorful fillings to assembling, wrapping, and steaming.

Both demonstrations are currently scheduled for Room 3.
Make a Weekend of It
Pinners Arizona takes place Friday, November 13 from 9 a.m.–8 p.m. and Saturday, November 14 from 9 a.m.–7 p.m. at WestWorld of Scottsdale.
Whether you come to learn a new skill, discover creative businesses, shop, take a class, or explore the possibility of becoming an Antsy Nancy franchise owner, we hope you’ll make a point to come say hello.
For us, Pinners represents something especially exciting. Antsy Nancy began with one location, one entrepreneur, and a belief that people of all ages want opportunities to learn something new and have fun doing it.
Five years later, we’re ready for the next chapter.
