Metal Clay & Jewelry Guild of Northern Ohio

Looking to spread your creative wings? Looking for a new adventure? Maybe you have heard of Metal Clay! It is really not clay at all-it is a revolutionary craft medium that allows you to explore working in metals in a while new way! Microscopic particles of metal are mixed with an organic binder and water to create a “clay” that can be molded, formed, cut...you name it! It is eventually fired in a jewelry kiln and your piece winters to a solid metal creation! Wow, right! Sounds like something that could awaken the artist in you! The Northeast Ohio Metal Clay Guild meets once a month at the Valley Art Center in Chagrin Falls. Metal clay artists and artists of many different medium gather to learn, share and create! Sounds cool and you want to learn more about Metal Clay, consider taking a class on Metal Clay at the Valley Art Center. Day and night classes are available. Get out of your rut- kick start your creativity! Check us out today! to create
