MCG Youth & Arts

Today for #TBT , let's look back to the time Mr. Rogers paid a visit to our neighborhood ceramics studio. Manchester Craftsmen's Guild founder, Bill Strickland, showed Fred how to work the wheel and they made a lovely plate together! #mcgyouthandarts #mrrogersneighborhood

From concept to finished product; one of our students from Holy Family Institute made this beautiful pendant! They used Tinkercard and priced it on one of our Formlabs Form SLA 3-D printers.
