Kick off the holiday season by participating in this timeless tradition, as you craft a handmade ornament using sequins, beads, ribbon, and other decorative materials. Whether you're making it for your tree or as a thoughtful gift, this hands-on workshop will add a personal touch to your holiday celebrations. Enjoy cheerful music, seasonal treats, and the joy of creating in a festive atmosphere. The class is open to ages 12+.

Attendees will get to select and paint one miniature alebrije. There is no guarantee that a particular carving of an animal will be available, and selection is based on order of arrival to the class.

What if I can no longer attend?

We understand that unexpected situations arise and advance notice isn’t always possible. However, we kindly ask that you try to provide at least 24–48 hours’ notice for any refund requests or changes in attendance. Doing so allows us to reopen ticket availability and offer another participant the opportunity to join the class.

All workshops will begin promptly at the time listed on your ticket. We recommend arriving 5–10 minutes early to ensure a smooth check-in and allow our instructors to start the class on time.

If you have any further questions, please reach out to the museum operations coordinator, Alexandra Kean: amkean@salisbury.edu.
