From Ordinary to Extraordinary: Create a Fabulous Pencil Cup! Inspired by the Youth Art Exhibition at CCA, entitled “From Ordinary to Extraordinary,” we’ll take a plain old boring pencil cup and make it fabulous, inspiring, funny, silly, weird, cute, or beautiful! We’ve got all the supplies, all that’s needed is your imagination. Will it have colorful patterns, beads, googly eyes, arms and legs? Best of all, you get to take it home and proudly place it on your desk to hold your creative supplies!
This is a FREE one-hour workshop and no experience is necessary! All supplies are provided.
