It began in the 17th Century in Slovakia, and now you will have the opportunity to learn the craft on Wednesday night.

The Humboldt and District Gallery is hosting the Tinker, Tinker, Play Metal Wire Workshop with artist Bonnie Conly.

You will learn drawing, tying and wrapping techniques to build and sculpt a dragonfly and bookmark.

Techniques include the use of needle nose pliers to twist the wire into art.

All supplies will be provided, but you must pre-register by contacting the Gallery.
