About the event
From Dirt to Dishes: A Weekly Clay Hand Building Workshop
Description:
Join us every week for our "From Dirt to Dishes" workshop, where you can indulge your creativity and explore the versatile world of clay! Whether you're a beginner or an experienced clay enthusiast, this ongoing workshop offers a space for everyone to engage in hands-on, freeform instruction.
In each session, participants will delve into the fundamentals of hand building with clay. From clay preparation to mastering techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab construction, you'll have the opportunity to hone your skills and let your imagination run wild.
This workshop is designed to be flexible, allowing you the freedom to explore and experiment with clay at your own pace. Whether you're drawn to crafting intricate pieces or prefer to let inspiration guide your hands, the choice is entirely yours.
As you mold and shape your creations, you'll discover the therapeutic benefits of working with clay, allowing your mind to unwind and your creativity to flourish. Our supportive environment encourages experimentation and exploration, so don't be afraid to get your hands dirty!
At the end of each session, your creations will be left to dry and fire in our kiln, ready to be glazed in future workshops. This firing process ensures that your pieces are durable and functional, ready to adorn your table or be gifted to a loved one once glazed.
Whether you're looking to join us for a fun night out with friends, a creative weekly ritual, or simply a chance to unwind and explore your artistic side, "From Dirt to Dishes" promises an enriching and enjoyable experience for all. Join us weekly and discover the magic of turning dirt into dishes!
