Make your own maracas
Have you ever wanted to create your own musical instrument with your own hands? In this workshop, you will make your own maracas—a traditional percussion instrument from Latin America, known for their vibrant sound and lively rhythm. Maracas are often used in music to add texture and rhythm, making them both functional and beautiful.
Over the course of 3 hours, we will dive into the process of shaping, decorating, and crafting these festive instruments. You will learn the basics of creating a maraca from clay, while also having the freedom to personalize and design your own.
In this workshop, you will create 1-2 maracas, which you can design and decorate yourself. Whether you’re a complete beginner or already have crafting experience, this workshop offers a fun and inspiring experience.
