UpComing Dates - Workshops & Studio Open House



Workshops
I have posted that there will be two 2-day workshops offered for four participants each . April 2&3(Thurs/Fri) and April 7&8( Tue/Wed





In the workshops artists & novices will receive a package of objects & materials. We will explore different ways to connect and assemble these items.





The emphasis is on creative play and learning how best to connect different materials. I.E. glass to metal, wood to rubber and many others. In 2 days we can experiment with glues & adhesives, learn how to handle and work with difficult products.





I am now taking sign -ups and deposits for both classes.
