FAMILY FUN DAY
Holiday Clay Ornaments and Holiday Plates
Instructor: Brenda Gariepy

A family holiday favorite, Holiday Clay Ornaments, returns with a new twist. This year the ornaments and holiday plates will combine printmaking and ceramics. Printmaking offers a versatile method for surface decoration and expression. Gelli printing on clay involves applying layers of glaze to a gel plate, capturing color and intricate design detail. The image is then transferred on to the clay.

Each third Saturday of the month, Waterworks will host Cool Cars & Coffee. During the event car enthusiasts who also enjoy photography will join photographer Traci Arney. Photographers will bring the device of their choice. Ms. Arney will guide and assist the group by sharing insights and providing tips as photographers navigate the car show looking for just the right car to take just the right image. All ages and skill levels are welcome.
Prompted with the same theme and materials, multi-generational ARTmaking at Waterworks allows families to create together.
