Join Jana Song Bobo at ABAM for a wire-wrapping workshop!

In this “Make and Take” class, participants will learn to wire wrap and decorate a seashell and a corroded shell found in Neptune Beach. While these items will be available for use, individuals are welcome to bring fairly flat objects they wish to wrap and decorate. Once finished, pieces can be worn as pendants or used for various decorative functions.Through the process of completing their projects, participants will learn the use of basic hand tools, wire manipulation, wire wrapping and wire weaving techniques.Brief illustrations and demonstrations will be followed by hands on activity with plenty of individual supervision and assistance.Tickets are $55 per person.All materials will be provided and sets of tools will be available for use in the class.Instructor: Jana Song BoboJana Song Bobo is a classically trained pianist who has had a life-long love of unique jewelry.
