About the Maker:

Hey Girl Hey Body Care is a natural skincare, bath and wellness company created by a mother-daughter duo who are passionate about bringing the healing power of nature into your daily routine. As lifelong lovers of all things herbal, we started handcrafting our own skincare products as a way to infuse our daily routines with the healing power of nature.

“Our journey began with a shared love of herbal remedies and a desire to create natural skincare products that were both effective and gentle. We started sharing our creations with friends and family and the demand grew for our unique, herbal-infused formulations. Our confidence eventually grew when we finally realize we have game changing products and so, Hey Girl Hey Body Care was born.”  

About Maker-Led Workshops:

Maker-Led Workshops are a new initiative of the Heurich Urban Manufacturing Incubator. The workshops provide makers with a free in-person platform in the museum’s conservatory to test and develop a new revenue stream to support the growth and stability of their businesses. 

Heurich Urban Manufacturing Incubator: 

The Urban Manufacturing Incubator is rooted in the museum’s belief that house museums should be dynamic and relevant to our modern communities. The mission of the Incubator is to provide economic opportunities to our local small-scale manufacturing communities through: appropriate interventions in business life cycles, collective action, and social enterprises. The local small-scale manufacturing community in DC is composed of two groups: Artisan Makers + Craft Beverage Producers. These groups are directly related to Heurich history - the historic mansion was built and decorated by local craftspeople from 1892-1894 and the Chr. Heurich Brewing Co. (1872-1956) produced DC’s hometown beer brand for over 80 years.
