During this exhibit\, you’ll find EVEN MORE CARDS extending beyond the merchandise area into the gallery space and sorted by a word that rhymes with THIRTY\, such as flirty\, earthy\, wordy\, purty\, and more.

This tradition has continued for thirty years! \nMore recently\, in 2020\, the Creative Card Swap was started to keep artists connected to each other during the pandemic. The activity was so popular it became an ongoing\, recurring Del Ray Artisans program. In conjunction with The Big 3-0 exhibit\, we’ll launch an online exhibit of special cards traded in the Creative Card Swap. View this collection to witness the great breadth\, creativity\, and joy of handcrafted cards. \nThe Big 3-0 members showcase runs September 2 – October 1\, 2022 at Del Ray Artisans gallery in the Colasanto Center\, 2704 Mount Vernon Avenue\, Alexandria\, Virginia 22301.

SUMMARY:QWERTY: Playing with Resin Workshop (CANCELED)
DESCRIPTION:This event has been canceled by the instructor. \nInstructor: Tracy WilkersonDate/Time: Sunday\, September 18 from 6-9pmCost: $40 DRA member / $50 Non-member; plus $10 Supply FeeClass size: 6-12 participants(Register by September 14) \nDel Ray Artisans turns THIRTY this year. To celebrate\, take one or more of our rhyming programs in September! \nDuring the QWERTY: Playing with Resin Workshop\, upcycle old keyboard keys into art while learning the ins and outs of resin! Artist-instructor Tracy Wilkerson will teach you how to prep\, mix\, and use resin as an adhesive\, a covering\, or the main medium. All supplies are provided\, but feel free to bring personal embellishments for your piece(s). \nThis workshop does not get into using dyes with resin or building big molds to create one-of-a-kind resined tables (as seen on YouTube)\, but this workshop will provide you with a good understanding of how resin works so you can be bold enough to take the next steps in your creative interests. \nAlthough the class is listed for 3 hours\, you can leave once you have finished your creations. Some students finish very quickly while others take the whole 3 hours to create – there is plenty of time for each person to enjoy the creative process while not feeling rushed. You’ll leave your finished masterpiece(s) to set at the gallery at the end of the workshop\, and pick them up during gallery hours later in the week. \nThe workshop is designed for adults. Children ages 16-17 may participate with parental permission. Children ages 12-15 may participate only with a co-participating adult guardian (guardian must contact instructor in advance). \nFace masks are recommended inside the gallery. \n\nView other upcoming workshops\, information about the facility and policies on the Upcoming Workshops page.
