Get an early start on Go Texan Day at this month’s Hands-on Houston by crafting a one-of-a-kind bolo tie! Design and sculpt your bolo slide using polymer clay, and add beads for flair. You’ll leave with a fun and festive bolo, ready to celebrate the Houston Rodeo in style!

Note: Please allow 25 minutes to complete this activity. The activity will take place indoors and is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.

This program was financially assisted by Impact100 Houston.

HANDS-ON HOUSTON is a free drop-in event held the first Saturday of every month (except in July). Each month, a teaching artist or guild demonstrates a craft related to the current exhibitions. Community members of all ages are welcome to come any time between 11 AM and 3 PM and participate in a 20 –25-minute activity. Materials are provided. This program supports HCCC’s mission to inspire and connect people to the art and process of making. Learn more here.
