Join us for a clay mold that can be as intricate or minimalist as you like, using air drying clay! For Teens, Adults, and Seniors

Join us for a DIY craft where we use air drying clay to form a decorative ring dish. The best part? It doesn't require an oven or kiln to create a beautiful, unique product! Build it in the library, then take it home to air dry up to 24 hours before it's ready for all your sparkly storing needs 💍
