Hands-On Houston: Nameplate Necklaces at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft
Inspired by the summer exhibition, Georgina Treviño: La Fuente del Deseo, the June Hands-on Houston explores the art of the nameplate necklace. Discover how to use a hammer and various letter stamps to emboss your name or a word into a metal plate.
Note: This activity is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
HANDS-ON HOUSTON is a free drop-in event held the first Saturday of every month. Each month, a teaching artist demonstrates a craft related to the current exhibitions. Families and children of all ages are welcome to come any time between 11 AM and 3 PM and participate in a 15 – 20-minute activity. Materials are provided. This program supports HCCC’s mission to advance education about the process, product, and history of craft.
