Zen Rock Wrapping

Description

December 16 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm

Join us for a beginner-friendly, fun class on Zen Rock Wrapping! In this creative workshop, you’ll learn how to wrap rocks using materials such as leather, string, and jute, and explore decorative techniques using small glass chips and other tiny rocks.

Rock wrapping is a fun way to transform simple stones from nature into beautiful, handcrafted art pieces. Teaching Artist Marie will show you three different wrapping styles, guiding you through the creation of your own unique pieces of rock art. A bit of finger dexterity is required. You’ll take home three wrapped rocks, one glued rock, and a burlap bag to hold them: perfect for gifting or keeping for yourself!  Decorated rocks are a great showcase of your creativity. Join the class for a relaxing and artistic experience!  Please note that the use of caning will not be taught in this class.  All supplies included. Please enter through the 5th Street door.
