Clay Day is purely a day to get together
and learn, play, and discuss all about polymer clay. Any group of clayers
can get together at a rec center, art center, church or synagogue, or your
own home. This is different than your regular guild meeting.
At the SDPCG, we use a room at one of our
member's church. The guild pays a fee for use of the room, which comes
from member's dues. It's not fancy, but we have room to move around, tables
and chairs, electricity, running water, and a bathroom. IMHO, that's all
you need to get started.

We all bring some munchies to share while
we clay. We also bring pasta machines, portable work surfaces such as ceramic
tiles (so we don't cut into the tables), blades, cutters, powders and potions.
Pretty much everything we need or think we'll need to work on our projects.
People share ideas and techniques they've
developed or learned. We help each other figure out what we're doing right
or wrong.

All levels of skill are shared at a Clay
Day. There should be no shyness about showing what you're working on. Someone
else has started where you are and may even have a tip to share with you!
The more experienced clayers will have something around to inspire you
to greatness. |
