Turn your imagination into wearable art! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll craft a copper or brass pendant using Precious Metal Clay (PMC)—a moldable clay made of real metal particles that transforms into solid metal when kiln-fired. Learn how to cut, texture, and layer your piece while working with the clay in both its wet and green (dry) stages. Finished pendants will be kiln-fired by the instructor and ready for pickup the following week.

All tools, supplies, and safety gear will be provided; please wear clothing you don’t mind getting dirty. Preregistration is strongly preferred; limited walk-in tickets may be available—please call ahead.

Happens on the following Dates:

• Feb 25, 2026, 2:00pm to 4:30pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)
• Feb 26, 2026, 6:00pm to 8:30pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)

Following a violent coup, a young woman named Chelsea is crowned Queen of North America. In the midst of her newfound reign, three friends from middle school (whom she hasn’t spoken to in years) walk into her new palace to ask Chelsea for a big favor. But before she grants it, she’s going to make them reminisce and “embrace the nostalgia” by revisiting their shared friendship and its horrific ending.

Veal was developed and had its world premiere at A Red Orchid Theatre in Chicago
