  What is Metal Clay?

Metal Clay consists of powdered silver, bronze, copper, white bronze or steel mixed with a binder.  It feels like clay.  When you shape it, dry it, and then fire it, the end result is 99% fine silver, or copper, bronze, white bronze or steel in the same shape you created, with no binder.  Amazing! Fantastic and fun!

Offered by Leav Bolender, Licensed Art Educator, PMC Level I Certified, Art Clay Certified.

 

Beginner's Silver Classes are held from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p. m. in my studio in Denver.

(Class tuition: $125.00 which includes all materials, 8 hrs. of instruction, use of tools, handouts, and firing of metal clay pieces. Additional silver may be purchased if desired.)

Metal Clay Workgroups are 4 hrs. in duration with clay provided at $45.00.

 Placement will be confirmed upon payment prior to class start.

(This also allows me to order your silver clay!)

You may pay with cash, check, charge card (ask for details), or Pay Pal.

Class sizes are limited and fill early.  Make checks payable to Leav Bolender. (Call or email me so I can forward my mailing address and directions to the studio. 303-547-8774, leavbolender@comcast.net)
