  • Image: Living the Change

    Through Aug. 28, 5-8 p.m.

    Scientists tell us that we must reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 (vs. a 2010 baseline), and that 25 – 30% of all needed emissions reductions can come from individuals/households. 50% may seem like a very high hurdle. But, it translates to only a 10%/year reduction, starting now. And, you may have already made some lifestyle improvements since 2010 that reduced your emissions, so you could already be well on your way toward the 50% reduction goal. Participants in this individualized course will leave with a personal plan to achieve the 50% emissions reduction goal. 281-300-8212

    Discover the magic of enameling in this beginner-friendly workshop, where you’ll create several finished copper samples that can be transformed into pendants or earrings! Enameling is a centuries-old technique of fusing powdered glass onto metal, creating glossy, durable, and often colorful surfaces. This process is popular for jewelry, vessels, and decorative objects, with different enameling methods producing a variety of colors, patterns, and textures. The result is a unique piece that reflects the maker’s creativity and craftsmanship. This workshop is beginner friendly; no previous metalsmithing experience is needed. Closed-toe shoes and natural fiber clothing are required for safety. 713-529-4848
