Children create clay Christmas ornaments

DERBY - Valley Arts Council President Rich DiCarlo showed three students how to sculpt clay ornaments during last week's workshop at Derby Public Library. 

The session was the first of a two-part series.

Aryana Ryan, 10, of Ansonia, shows off her Santa ornament.

Alexys Ryan, 12, Aryana's older sister, works on a Christmas tree ornament under the watchful eye of DiCarlo.

Derby resident Greg Maiorino,13, shows off an elf he is creating...
 

 and here he concentrates on a gingerbread man. 

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree ...
