Curiosity Cabinet in Clay (Ages 12-14)
Learn about the traditional art of the retablo, or miniature altar scene, and make a small clay curiosity cabinet to hold your precious keepsakes or to honor heroes, artists, and ancestors.
Special Notes
- Students will use clay that needs to be fired, so work will be picked up at a later date.
This is an On-site course. Students must follow current CDC + VDH guidance outlined on our website: visarts.org
