Workshop Description

Come get muddy with Lisa from Beaches Pottery at our Play with Clay - Hand Building Pottery workshop, and experience the fun of working with clay! We will be using our hands and basic tools to create flat slabs of clay that you’ll shape into something unique and one-of-a-kind. This workshop is great for beginners and those looking to experience the fun and challenges of working with clay. You will create a large bowl. We will use stamps, cloth or other found objects to decorate the raw clay on the outside of your pieces. Feel free to bring anything you’d like (fabric, lace, stamps, or things from nature) to add interest and texture to your piece. Templates will be provided and we will have some objects at the studio to use as well. Glaze options will be available to choose on the day of the workshop. Glazes are food safe. Your pieces will be glazed, fired twice and returned to the studio for pick up just in time for Mother's Day! We will be working with a local stoneware clay, colour will vary based on availability. Glaze and clay pictured above may not be exact during the workshop. PLEASE NOTE: Please allow up to 8 weeks for the glazing and firing process. We will contact you when your pieces are ready to be taken home - just in time for holiday gifting!
