Clay Lab for Kids: 52 Projects to Make, Model, and Mold with Air-Dry, Polymer, and Homemade Clay.

Art teacher and winner of the Netflix bake-off show Nailed It! presents Clay Lab for Kids. Cassie Stephens introduces 52 hands-on crafts developed with kid-friendly clays that encourage children to be creative and think in three dimensions.

Buttons, beads, jewellery, figures, boxes, mosaics, and frames are all skills you’ll need to make oven-clay products.

The book starts with some fundamental skills like rolling, baking, and glueing to get you started. It then continues on to marbling effects, textile simulation, frame creation, tiny pot construction, and faux stone creation.

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022. A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay. POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
