About this Event
Participants will learn how to build mugs (with handles!) from rolled out slabs of clay. The workshop will also cover how to create subtle and elegant relief designs with a water etching technique.
On day 1, students will learn how to slab build their mugs. On day 2 of the workshop, after the mugs have dried to the leather hard stage, students will learn how to apply their design to their mugs with a water etching technique.
Beginners welcome!
