The Matchbox Show Workshop

Join us to explore creativity on a tiny scale in this hands-on workshop with ceramicists Michael and Nina Ciavarella. Create a miniature ceramic artwork that fits inside a standard Redheads matchbox. Your finished piece will become part of the Matchbox Show Collection, a growing exhibition featuring more than 800 tiny artworks created by artists from around the world.

You will be guided through the process of sculpting a unique clay creation, then painting and decorating both the artwork and the matchbox tray to create a complete miniature display.

During the workshop, you will:

• Design your own miniature artwork.

• Sculpt a clay creation sized to fit inside a matchbox.

• Paint and decorate your clay sculpture. (These will later be fired)

• Decorate the matchbox tray to complement and showcase your creation.

Think small, be creative, and remember: tiny artworks can tell big stories!
