Small Wonders: The Art of Making Miniatures

Adult Course | Registration opens 12/3/2024 7:00 AM MST

Think big but work tiny!
In this miniature-making course, you will design your own miniature room while learning about the rich history of the pocket-sized art form. Little by little, you'll craft mini furniture and decor using materials like clay, cardboard, and fabric. It's a small world with plenty of room for students of all experience levels.

Each class, students will learn a different method for creating a miniature version of a piece of furniture, art or decor, with a short historical lesson about the history of miniature-making as it applies to that day’s objective. Students will each have their own 12"x12" room to furnish throughout the course.

  • Please bring:
    -A small self-healing cutting mat
    -Tweezers
    -X-acto knife with extra blades
    -Small sewing scissors
    -Ruler/straight edge
    -Small paint brushes.

    Dependent on each week’s lesson, the classroom will have the following materials supplied: hot glue, super glue, glue dots, rubber cement, tape, a rotary cutter, card stock, thin fabrics, paint, air dry clay and small recyclables.
