About this Event
WINTER SIP & CREATE
Luxury boutique hotel Pendry Chicago and French brasserie Venteux have debuted their new creative workshop series featuring Chicago-based makers. Coined the Winter Weekend Sip & Create, the Michigan Avenue mainstays will transform Venteux’s beautiful botanical cafe into a pop-up art studio for six weekends from January - March 2025 in partnership with Chicago-based Nest Artisan Guild Makers and with support from the Design Museum of Chicago.
Workshops will be held on Saturday evenings in Venteux’s botanically-themed cafe, inviting participants to keep winter blues at bay, get their creative wheels turning and cozy up to create something that sparks joy in the heart of the city. Each ticket will include the cost of the workshop plus a complimentary glass of house wine.
Blue & White Clay Carving Workshop
Danielle Chutinthranond of Monsoon Pottery specializes in making ceramic dinner and houseware in her West Town studio, inspired by nature, classic Asian motifs, Chinatown and food and restaurant culture. In this workshop, she will guide her attendees through the inlay technique, share more about the history of inlay and blue and white wares, and teach participants to carve a porcelain plate of their own. Additional plates to carve will be available to purchase for $40 each and each plate takes 2-3 weeks to fire and finish. Pickup or shipping options will be available. Please note that this workshop will be three hours and takes place from 6-9 p.m.
