Handmade is heARTfelt! Great for families, enjoy creating with your out-of-town holiday guests. Make a special gift or keepsake!Meet local ceramic artist Bonnie Mitchell and get a chance to work with her while learning how to carve your own tile. During this special hands-on workshop, you’ll have 45 minutes to work with Bonnie to create your own keepsake tile using your design and a technique known as sgraffito. Participants will be notified when their creations are ready for pickup.
What to Expect: This workshop will focus on the sgraffito technique used by area 19th-century potters to make expressive designs in their folk-art pottery. Sgraffito means to “scratch,” and workshop participants will draw a design of their choosing into a damp clay slab and then carve out layers of the clay to make their image more purposeful. After the workshop concludes, Bonnie Mitchell will add the final glaze and kiln-fire your tile. Finished tiles will be returned to the Nature Shop at a later date.
Preregistration required. Member adult or child $35; nonmember adult or child $40.
