Don’t Miss Sandy Camp 2026!

The premiere San Diego polymer clay event is BACK!

Polymer clay lovers, mark your calendars for April 30 – May 2, 2026. The San Diego Polymer Clay Guild is hosting Sandy Camp 2026, and if you haven’t registered yet, you’re already missing out.

This isn’t just another craft retreat; it’s three full days of uninterrupted creative bliss in beautiful San Diego. Imagine a weekend where your only responsibility is to play with clay, learn from live demonstrations, and soak up inspiration from a community that “gets” your obsession.

Why You Can’t Miss This:

  • Guaranteed Workspace: A dedicated spot to spread out for the entire event.
  • Daily Demos: At least two expert-led demonstrations every single day.
  • The Vibe: A Saturday night potluck and the legendary Opportunity Drawing event.
  • The Community: Connect with artists from across the West Coast, from beginners to pros.

Here’s the Catch…

There are only 40 seats available in total. As of now, seats are already disappearing fast. If you want to be one of the Sandy Camp Founding Artists—which gets you first choice of tables and 10 free drawing tickets—you need to move even faster.

Don’t be the one scrolling through the “after” photos wishing you were there. Whether you’re coming for the full experience or grabbing a limited day pass, the clock is ticking.

Register NOW before the last 29 seats are gone!
