Description
Metal tooling is an ancient technique that dates back to our earliest civilizations with evidence from ancient Greece where they used this technique to ornately decorate their armor plates and even early Egyptians were found to have used this technique to create their mummy masks from a single sheet of gold metal. We will take on this technique while exploring texture and patterns. The final stage of this project will be combining all our metal works into one hanging art sculpture. During this half day event, students will be learning these new techniques at age appropriate levels. Older students will be challenged to think outside the box and grow their own creative style.
This project is great for all school age students (no younger than rising K-5 please). Students must be signed up by the Monday prior to each event in order for us to get supplies ready for this event. Friday Maker Days may fill up and will be marked SOLD OUT when the maximum number of students is reached.
