SUMMARY:Making Beautiful “Milagritos” or Mexican Tin Art with Elizabeth Gomez
DESCRIPTION:Make Your Own “Milagritos” with Artist Elizabeth Gomez – A Tin Art Workshop with Heart\nIf you’re looking for something crafty\, cultural\, and totally hands-on this April\, we’ve got just the thing—Making Milagritos\, a Mexican Tin Art Workshop led by Bay Area artist and author Elizabeth Gomez. \nMark your calendars for Saturday\, April 19\, from 3:00 to 5:30 PM at Studio 114 in Art Bias\, and get ready to explore a traditional Mexican art form that’s been around since the 1500s. The class is just $75\, and includes all the materials you need. \nWhat’s a Milagrito?\nDifferent kinds of art \n\nGlad you asked. “Milagritos” means “little miracles” in Spanish\, and they’re small charms or ornaments traditionally made from tin or other soft metals. You’ve probably seen them—shiny hearts\, suns\, doves\, even hands—etched with bold lines and raised shapes. These aren’t just pretty decorations; they carry meaning\, memory\, and sometimes a bit of magic. \nWhat You’ll Do\nIn this workshop\, you’ll learn the basics of metal tooling—how to shape\, emboss\, and bring depth to your tin using simple tools and techniques. Elizabeth will provide classic Mexican designs to work from (think: hearts\, birds\, suns)\, or you can let your creativity lead and sketch your own symbolic image. \nBy the end of the session\, you’ll have your own hand-tooled tin masterpiece to take home—and maybe even a newfound love for this shimmering folk art tradition. \nMeet the Artist\nElizabeth Gomez \n\nElizabeth Gomez is the real deal. Born and raised in Mexico City\, she’s been living in the Bay Area since 1991\, sharing her art and passion for culture with communities of all ages. She’s illustrated five award-winning multicultural children’s books\, created multicultural art curriculums\, and visited countless schools as a speaker\, artist\, and storyteller. \nBasically\, you’re learning from a true local legend. Visit her website. \nSpots are limited—sign up via Eventbrite here \n\n\n\n\n\n \n  \n \nFor more events at Art Bias\, see their Calendar\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.
