Ah, the joys of making something by hand! Clark County is bursting at the seams with makers and artisans, both masters of their craft and those who are eager to learn. Here is a sampling of the many creative opportunities from now through the end of August.

You could try bookbinding, leatherwork, raku, pastel painting, ceramics, watercolor, crochet, jewelry-making, glass fusing and cookie decorating, to name but a few classes offered this summer.
