Arts
April 5
2–4pm
Join this fun and creative workshop where, with simple tools, you can create a unique cuff bracelet or perhaps a pendant or two. Using bands of aluminum, you will learn how to texture and personalize it into a finished, wearable piece of jewellery.
The workshop is suitable for all ages!
All materials and tools will be supplied, just bring your enthusiasm. The creativity will come as you make lots of noise hammering away on the metal.
