Magic Clay (Make & 1 & Gift 1)

Do you want to get creative AND make a gift for someone special? Inspired by the holidays of Thanksgiving and Christmas, teens between the ages of 12-18 or grades 7-12 are welcome to join us for two opportunities at the Cottonwood Clay Studio.

Create a beautiful ‘Magic Clay’ decoration. 

Stroke a brush of colour on your ‘Magic Clay’ and watch with wonder as the velvety colour dries within seconds. Each stroke of colour builds on the last, creating a visual richness that transforms before your eyes. The magic lies in the sensual process and the delight and wonder that no matter what colours or designs you add to your Magic Clay, you will never get muddy brown and your decoration will always be rich, vibrant and beautiful. 

Location: Cottonwood Clay Studio at the Badlands Community Facility 

Time: 6:30pm - 8:00pm

Dates:

• November 18, 2022: Thanksgiving Edition (Registration Deadline: November 11, 2022)
