MSWG was part of the Fun DIY pop-up activities at CMOM on Saturday, January 13.
Children were introduced to how people make things from materials such as metals, wood, fibers and soaps.
The Metal Museum gave children the opportunity to explore pewter castings.
Several fiber artists gave children hands-on activities to see how to create using yarns. MSWG guided children in making a wooden top and there was an artist helping children make soap. In addition, children made and decorated wooden birdhouses.
Metal Museum – metalsmiths demonstrated pewter casting / offered a mini anvil activity.
Woodturners Guild – woodturners showed how to turn wood and how to finish a toy top.
Oh Sweetz! – soap making workshop bubbled over with activities.
