Saturday, April 28 / 10 am – 4 pm

Inspired by her Navajo heritage, instructor Tia Flores, will use natural resources and designs inspired by nature in this one-day calabaza (gourd) pyrography workshop.

Students will complete their necklace by adding a leather backing to the gourd and will complete the project by adding artificial sinew stitching and leather strap.
