At Craft Contemporary, participants ages 10 and up will shape metal into a pendant, then choose a keepsake, tiny photo or other meaningful object to put inside.
All times are local to the venue · America/Los Angeles
The central decision in this family workshop is personal: what memory to carry in a pendant you make yourself. Jewelry maker and metalsmith Monica Moreno will guide participants through cutting and forming metal and soldering a jump ring before they add a chosen object.
The project brings together a specific set of metalworking steps and an open-ended choice of contents. Craft Contemporary lists cutting and forming metal, then soldering a jump ring, as part of making the pendant with Moreno.
For the finished piece, the event names symbolic keepsakes, tiny photos and other meaningful objects as possibilities. It does not prescribe a shared motif or design, or state how large an object can fit. If you have a particular keepsake in mind, check with the museum about its size and whether to bring it.
