Candle Art w/Uli Thorn

Create beautiful, one-of-a-kind decorative candles in this inspiring class with artist Uli Thorn.

July 11 and 18

Using beeswax and colorful embellishments, students will explore the art of working “in the round” on candles while celebrating nature, seasonal holidays, special occasions, and meaningful life moments such as a child’s first birthday.

The class begins with simple flat surfaces and abstract patterns before progressing into dimensional relief work and more complex forms inspired by nature. Beeswax is a wonderfully therapeutic material that becomes soft and pliable with the warmth of your hands and quickly hardens as it cools, allowing students to shape, layer, and build both solid and transparent effects while experimenting with color and texture.

Uli’s warm, step-by-step instruction makes this a welcoming and enjoyable experience for beginners and experienced creatives alike. Come enjoy a relaxing, hands-on class that blends creativity, craftsmanship, and the joy of making something truly personal…
