ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

Join us as we celebrate the essence of spring through nature-inspired botanicals, incorporating pressed flowers, leaves, and organic designs into unique ceramic tableware.’
Let your imagination run wild as you learn the basics of this beautiful ancient art. You will learn how to work with clay using various hand building techniques, decorating and under-glazing techniques.

You will take home your tableware once final glazing and firing has been completed. In this 3-hour session all tools, clay and glazes and morning tea are provided. Also included is bisque, food safe glazing and kiln firing for your masterpiece.

This event is suitable for adults 18 years and over.

Pottery is one of the oldest of the handcrafts and a beautifully meditative process. This workshop is perfect for:
1. Those wanting to try this ancient art,
2. A thoughtful birthday gift to give, or enjoy together with a loved one,
3. Friend’s catchup (grab a few friends and enjoy learning something new).

Clay washes out easily, but please bring comfortable clothing and footwear. Short fingernails are a must as nails will make marks on your artwork.
