This event is a benefit for Frye Nouveau members.

As the days grow shorter and the nights a little cozier, we're turning up the heat with an evening of candle dipping and adorning with Shannon Phelps of Calico Botanicals.

Craft your own pair of hand-dipped beeswax taper candles, adorned with the colored wax and natural plant materials of your choosing.

Whether you’re flying solo or joining with a friend, this evening is the perfect opportunity to spark some new connections, learn from a local artist, and add a little autumn ambiance to your life.

Your $30 ticket includes:

• All candle-making materials
• Two hand-dipped taper candles to take home
• A beverage to enjoy while you craft

About Calico Botanicals

Image

Calico Botanicals is a practice in slowness and temporality. Each candle is intentionally dipped in pure beeswax and hand sculpted or embellished with local plants. Every burn is meant to recall the tradition of slow crafts and purposeful utility. Made using only high-quality, consciously-sourced materials, each candle’s remnants may be composted at the end of their life. Calico candles are lovingly crafted by Shannon Phelps on Duwamish land (Seattle, WA). Shop Calico Botanicals at the Frye Art Museum Store.
