Inspired by our summer exhibition, Georgina Treviño: La Fuente del Deseo, our June Hands-on Houston explores the art of the nameplate necklace. Discover how to use a hammer and letter stamps to stamp your name or a word into a metal plate. Learn how to attach jump rings on each side of the plate and connect it to your choice of chain to create a necklace. What will your necklace say?
Note: This activity is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
