About this event
Join Del Rio Trail artist ambassador, Matthew Flores, for a clay tile making workshop along the new trail!
Swing by between 2pm - 4pm to explore the art of creating clay tiles using the slab method. Matthew will provide all the materials you need, including clay, rollers, carving tools, brushes, and underglazes. Get ready to craft and decorate your very own clay tile, destined to become part of Matthew's vibrant Del Rio Trail Community Mosaic.
With over 500 tiles already contributed, Matthew is eager to welcome more creative additions from the Sacramento community. Your tile will play a lasting role in showcasing the artistic spirit of our city, as Matthew plans to install the mosaic permanently at a chosen location. Don't miss out on this opportunity to be part of this community art project.
A representative from the City of Sacramento Office of Arts and Culture will speak about the Del Rio Trail Art Project and the artwork planned for this location along the trail.
All ages are welcome!
