Wax is used in art for a variety of purposes, from making paintings (encaustic) to casting metal (lost wax method). In this class participants will be given a brief introduction to the variety of different uses of wax in art making and will be given materials to apply learned methods and techniques in creating their own wax projects, from jewelry to candle making.

This class is being presented by The Jazz Robot Studios, a local arts non-profit, and will be led by Jonathan Larkin. Jonathan studied fine art at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and regular works with wax in his painting and metal working projects in his studio in Shrewsbury. 

For grades 5-12. Registration required.
