Adult Hand-built Pottery Workshop Series

Enjoy a hands-on experience at our handbuilt pottery workshop over two sessions, Nov 26th and Dec 3rd, 2024.
About this Event

This is an adult workshop. Must commit to both sessions. Class runs on both November 26th and December 3rd, 2024, from 11 AM to 1 PM.
Join us as we dive into the world of hand-built pottery, where you will connect with fellow enthusiasts and unleash your creativity. This two-part workshop promises to be a fun and fulfilling experience that will leave you with a beautiful, handcrafted piece to cherish!
In the first workshop, you’ll learn the art of crafting a unique pottery piece using your hands. Various techniques and styles will be explored along the way. Stephen’s approachable teaching style makes it easy for everyone, from beginners to more experienced potters, to find their voice in clay. Upon completion of the first workshop, Stephen will take the newly created pieces back to his studio for the first firing in his kiln.
The second workshop will be all about the glazing! This glass like coating enhances the appearance of your piece as well as adding durability. During this workshop, Stephen will demonstrate how to prepare your piece to receive the glaze, explain the different types of glazing and walk you through the various application techniques. As the final step, Stephen will transport all the finished pottery back to his studio for the final firing in his kiln.
Your pieces will be available for pick up at the library at a later date to be discussed during the final workshop.
