About this Event

What is Handbuilding?

Hand-building is a pottery technique that involves shaping clay by hand. Creating forms, without the use of a potter’s wheel. In this workshop we’ll be exploring slab-building, a hand-building technique for making pottery by joining flat pieces of clay or slabs..


Do I Need Ceramic Experience?

Nahhhh! This is a one-time beginner friendly workshop. Seriously, ALL skill levels are welcome!!

What to Expect:

Experience an introduction to ceramics through hand-building. The instructor, Hen Henderson (they/them) will lead you step-by-step on how to make and decorate a ceramic mug. We will be going over the basics of slab-building and exploring different methods of applying texture to clay.

Choose from 3 food-safe glaze color options.

All tools, materials, glazing service and firing services will be provided.

Finished mugs will be ready for pick up at Plantiitas 3-4 weeks following the workshop.


About the Facilitator- Hen Henderson (they/they):

Hen Henderson is a local artist from Santa Ana with a BA in Studio Art/Graphic Design from CSULB. They took their first ceramic class in 2011 at OCC, followed by a decade of sporadic courses.


In 2020, Hen was looking for a creative outlet and got back into ceramics at a studio in Santa Ana. They now have a small at-home studio where they make their ceramics. Some of which, are now available at Plantiitas 💚 :)
