SUMMARY:Cast Your Metal RBG Dissent Collar Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Every collar has a story……come and cast yours. \nInternational Women’s Month has us honoring and celebrating many women from around the globe.  In this workshop\, we are remembering Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her history breaking accomplishments here\, in the US\, and  internationally. \nCreate your design (or choose one from the collection)\, carve into a cuttlebone mold and pour lead-free pewter to make your dissent collar sculpture\, necklace\, brooch\, bolo tie\, hat pin or what-have-you?! Ages 10+.  No experience necessary.  This workshop will be in the Casket Arts Factory (not on the WOW bus). \n“You know\, the standard robe is made for a man because it has a place for the shirt to show\, and the tie\,” Ruth Bader Ginsburg said. “So Sandra Day O’Connor and I thought it would be appropriate if we included as part of our robe something typical of a woman. So I have many\, many collars.”  RBG began to be selective with her collar choice for the day as to convey a subtle meaning\, and\, as we like to think\, about her political communication with her jabot choices. \n

Cast your New Moon vision into metal and memorialize your transformation. \nIn this all hands-on\, creative and exciting class you will carve an original design (or choose from a selection of symbols and imagery) into a cuttlefish bone to create negative space. That space is filled with lead-free pewter to create your original metal casting. You pour the metal into your mold\, do finishing work with hand files and colored inks are optional. Hand-stamp a word of intention and mount your sculpture on metal/wood/stone base\, affix jewelry hardware or put it in your pocket. No experience necessary. \nCreate\, snack + sip (refreshments\, wine/beer and non-alcoholic beverages)\, converse and learn how to cast metal! \n***This class will take place INSIDE the Casket Arts Factory Building (same building as the NE Sculpture Gallery Factory).\nThe WOW bus is on winter break and will return in April!

SUMMARY:Cast Your Metal Charm for Answer the Telephone Like Buddy the Elf Day!
DESCRIPTION:According to National Day Calendar\, December 18 is Answer the Telephone Like Buddy the Elf Day and encourages everyone to add some elf behavior to their day! \n“Buddy the Elf was played by Will Farrell in the 2003 movie Elf. Answering the phone like Buddy the Elf not only surprises unsuspecting callers\, but it brightens their day\, too. As your day goes along\, it will most certainly brighten yours! Who can resist a giggle or a smile when being elf-like.” \nHOW TO OBSERVE #AnswerThePhoneLikeBuddyTheElfDay\n“Simply answer the phone and say “(Insert your Name) here\, what’s your favorite color.” As you answer\, smile and spread some joy. It’s nearly impossible not to. Encourage others to do the same. If you call someone\, don’t be surprised by the elf-like voice.” \nAdditional ways to celebrate as you answer the phone include dressing up and creating your own tiny-sized cast metal elfen flare – a telephone\, ugly sweater\, stocking and more to choose from amongst the molds of the Cabinet of Curious Castings.  You can dress like an elf\, wear a Santa hat or an ugly sweater. Or\, just put on your happy face and pour metal to celebrate our otherworldly and charming elfen selves and friends. \nYou pour lead-free pewter\, do finishing work and finalize with hardware/base/color to create your sculpture\, jewelry\, ornament\, magnet\, plant charm or what-have-you? \n$10 per casting. Approximately 30-60 minutes.  Adult and kid-friendly atmosphere.  This class is in the Casket Factory Building and not in the WOW bus.  Sanitized space/tools and masks required. \nAnother way to celebrate Answer the Phone Like Buddy the Elf Day is by telling elf jokes. It’s all in the spirit of the day. Elves spread fun where ever they go.  Q: What kind of music do elves like best?  A: Wrap music!
