I have been inspired by Judy Dunn and her polymer clay Peace Crane project. And so, I would like to inspire you as well.

If you love origami cranes but would like them to be a bit more substantial in nature this is the workshop for you. You don't need any prior polymer clay experience (or paper folding experience) to create an unusual and appealing sign of peace. So why not join us and give peace a chance.
