Tina has agreed to teach us the Silk Screen workshop. There will be a $35 charge for anyone who wants to be a part of the workshop. Rocky Mountain Polymer Clay Guild Members have first choice of refusal, at that point we will open it up to other guilds if we have room. the class room we use is small, only 10 - 11 spaces available so reserve your space early.
