Come and have some fun at the Gourd Club in Robson Ranch! Try out a new craft with a group of fun and helpful members!
What is a gourd, and what do you do with it? A gourd is the hollow, dried shell of a vine fruit, similar to a cucumber or pumpkin. The surface is similar to wood and can be carved, wood-burnt and sculpted. With the dozens of varieties and sizes and shapes, you can create planters, baskets, jewelry, figurines, musical instruments, bird houses and more!
If you are interested in learning this fun and creative art, we will have a beginner’s class on August 22 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Cost is a bargain at $5 and includes all the tools, paints and a small gourd. Space is limited, so please sign up soon.
