Most balloon sculptors these days focus on the large, multi-balloon creations. Elaborate, and often quite amazing – but also time-consuming to create. One-balloon sculptures usually take less than a minute each, meaning that a birthday party entertainer can probably give one to every child in attendance, even after a juggling or magic show. Street performers can better hold the crowd when potential patrons see the line for balloons moving quickly, and the tips keep flowing. Beginners will be taught the basics, and the more experienced twisters will be shown not only some advanced balloons, but also advanced techniques. And of course, attendees who have some originals, or some balloon creation not often seen will hopefully share that knowledge with the rest of us. Bring balloons, if you have them, but if not, they will be provided, along with a few pumps for those who need them.
We’ll focus on just using standard 260s, but if you want to bring other shapes and lengths for sculpting purposes, feel free.
