About the event
October 25 @ 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Starting with a demo, you will be guided in creating 2 stencils using two different types of materials and give them a try. Bring a project to try them on or we will create an accordion book to practice in. Some other mixed media materials will be used. Enjoy the rest of the time working on your own, socializing with others, and receiving guidance along the way. Open to older teens and adults. We are using sharp tools that are not suitable for children. No previous experience required.All basic materials will be provided. Feel free to bring a snack for yourself.
Please note: While there will be some instruction, encouragement between participants to share ideas, offer their own personal experiences and feedback working with the materials (if you have any) and to be working in a collaborative and creative environment with others is also what this day is about.
