So You Want To
Take a Class in Tin Can Art!
Friday, Saturday
and Sunday: May 14-16, 2010 9:30 am -
4:30 pm $350
This Tin Can Art class is designed to help you learn to use the wide
variety of tools and techniques used in creating art from recycled tin cans
and the material gleaned from deconstructing them. It is never too early to
gather as many painted tin cans, such as olive oil tins, license plates,
bottle caps, cookie tins, popcorn tins, as you can. Many artistic pieces can
be created from tin cans. In fact almost anything can be made from tin
cans, but it is up to you to decide what you would like to make. Most pieces
are one-of-a-kind items, and often whimsical in nature. Many functional
pieces like paintings, wall sculptures, handbags, jewelry, musical
instruments, clocks, lamps, and toys, can be fashioned from tin cans.
