Hands-On Houston: Nameplate Necklaces

June 1, 2024 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm

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.
HANDS-ON HOUSTON is a free drop-in event held the first Saturday of every month. Each month, a teaching artist demonstrates a craft related to the current exhibitions. Families and children of all ages are welcome to come any time between 11 AM and 3 PM and participate in a 15 – 20-minute activity. Materials are provided. This program supports HCCC’s mission to advance education about the process, product, and history of craft.
