Eiteljorg Kids Copper Bracelet Workshop with Artist in Residence JJ Otero

Sign your kids up for JJ Otero’s Copper Bracelet workshop on March 28 from 10 a.m.-11:30 p.m.

JJ is an award-winning metalsmith, woodworker, painter, musician, and artist from New Mexico who approaches all his work with one philosophy- “This moment is perfect, and there’s nothing lacking.” A former IT professional of 25 years, art and music have always been part of JJ’s life. He began his art career full-time after discovering his love for woodworking when he moved back home in 2016 and created a workbench for his father and a cradleboard for his sister’s upcoming grandchild. After being encouraged by friends to enter art markets, he was accepted into the Heard Museum Art Market and the SEEDS Art Market in 2018, cementing his transition into a full-time artist. He has experimented with acrylic painting and woodworking, but has shifted his focus to jewelry making over the past several years.

Tickets are $30 per person.
