The Rockford Park District's Outdoor Education and Recreation department invites you to our monthly Craft Club series, where we will be diving into nature-themed crafting experiences. From whittling to clay to willow weaving and so many things in between, sign up for one or several courses in this series as we learn introductory techniques for a wide variety of unique and creative activities selected to broaden your crafting horizons. Each course is meant to be a standalone experience that compliments other projects within the series. Courses will be two hours in length, setting you up with the basics to complete each project. Seasonally, Craft Club will rotate between locations: Atwood Center and the lodge at Alpine Hills Adventure Park. Come find a new perspective on an old favorite crafting activity or learn something completely new!
Squish it! Roll it! Mold it! Stamp it! For our inaugural Craft Club course, we are going to explore the wonderful world of CLAY! Join us as we discover numerous ways to add texture and pattern to clay projects using common household objects, plants, tools, and found items. Participants will be provided with clay and a variety of tools to utilize in the creation of their unique art pieces, as well as instructions on how to finish their projects at home. You are invited to stretch your creativity, and apply your unique perspectives to the project, and are welcome to bring your own items from home to experiment with.
January's Craft Club will be held at Atwood Center (2685 New Milford School Road, Rockford IL). Registration is $20 per session. Must be age 16 and up to register. Crafting supplies will be provided.
