Mercury Glass Votive Workshop for Kids at Wilton Historical Society on Saturday

Mercury Glass Votive Workshop for Kids at Wilton Historical Society on Saturday, December 15 from 11am to 12:30pm

In this fun and festive workshop, kids ages 6 – 12 will use paint and water to make shiny mercury glass votive candle holders. While decorating their votives, Laurie Walker, Museum Educator, will talk with the children about the origins of mercury glass, which was originally created as a replacement for sterling silver, and contains neither silver nor mercury. The children’s second project will be to make their own snack – fruit dipped in white chocolate, decorated with silver dragees. Very jolly!

Wilton Historical Society members $10 per child, maximum $25 per family; Non-members $15 per child, maximum $35 per family. Please register: info@wiltonhistorical.org or call 203-762-7257.
