Bits & Bobs Upcycled Art Club

Join us on Fridays from 10am to noon as we reinvent jewelry bits and bobs into new creations to sell at Curtis Fest in June. Funds raised will directly support the Senior Center at Sierra 2.

In this club we will:

• Disassemble old, outdated, or broken jewelry.
• Test compositions, learn about color, form, and shapes.
• Chat and socialize and learn from each other.
• Repurpose pieces into new broaches, earrings, rings, necklaces, pendants, jewelry boxes, magnets, and other decorative pieces.
• Package and price pieces for sale and create gorgeous displays for our booth.

It’s FREE – To join just show up (and bring a friend)! Please bring any tools or glue (E-6000) that you want to use as we have limited supply. You are welcome to bring bits and bobs to donate or projects for yourself, we just ask that you bring your own supplies for personal projects. This club will take place in the Learnery.

This class is part of the Sierra 2 Senior Center. Learn more about senior classes here.
