This workshop is free thanks to the Tah Dah! Foundation. Unleash your creativity with bead-making and 3D design! Dive into the world of creating intricate patterns and mesmerizing kaleidoscope designs using colorful polymer clay. By crafting "canes" through rolling, cutting, and slicing, you'll learn the art of pattern and sculptural design on a smaller scale. This process is perfect for crafting small items and unique jewelry pieces that showcase your individual style. But what exactly are clay canes? Imagine those candies with tiny images inside or clay pieces that seem to have images embedded within them - that's the magic of cane making! It involves constructing a larger image with your material and then condensing it into a long cane shape. When sliced, the image is revealed in a smaller format, creating stunning visual effects. Canes can range from simple to complex, easy to challenging, and can be manipulated in countless ways. Whether you prefer geometric designs or intricate picture canes, the possibilities are endless. Get ready to explore the exciting world of clay canes and let your imagination run wild! 8 - 18+ years - We kindly ask that adults actively participate in this art activity alongside any child under the age of 11.
