Make a Ceramic Mooncake Incense Holder
Ariel Zhang (she/her)
This guided activity will allow participants to use their hands and work with clay directly, using professional tools to create a customized mooncake-shaped incense holder. The air-dry clay won't need any further work, but can be painted once dry (in 24 hours) for a personalized touch.
No prior experience working with clay is required and all materials will be provided free of charge.
