Description
Join Karin for a fun and informative hand-building workshop where you will make a unique pair of bowls. After a short demo, you will experience rolling out your clay slab, choosing a shape, playing with textures, and adding “feet”. Your bowls will then be dried and bisque fired in our kiln – ready for glazing and decorating the following Sunday! Open to all levels – beginners welcome.
Materials will be supplied for this workshop (includes clay and glazes).
Space is limited
Day 1: Sunday March 9th 1:00-3:30 pm – Hand Building
Day 2: Sunday March 16th 1:00-3:30 pm – Glazing
Bowls will be available for pick up 1 week after the glazing session.
