About the event
What is a vessel? A ship? Yes, but it's also "a hollow container, especially one used to hold liquid, such as a bowl..." says the Oxford Dictionary.
Explore different hand building methods to create all types of beautiful, elegant, and functional vessels. Explore your imagination and create something into reality. Work with clay by learning either slab technique, coil techinique, pinch-pot technique, Kurinuki, hump and slump technique and more! Become familiar with clay and how it moves and bends to bring your vision to fruition. Play around with texture, prints, and stamps, and learn to glaze your artwork. Thus, creating  seamless, well-crafted vessels made by you. Each vessel has a max height of 1 ft (12 inches). All projects are fired in a kiln on our premises, and you will be able to take your artwork home once fired.
Also, enjoy a cup of soothing tea, as the Teaching Artist…
