DESCRIPTION

This workshop introduces you to basic handbuilding techniques and tools to create functional ceramic objects (bowls, planters) or non-functional (sculptural) objects. Participants will be shown different possibilities for shaping a simple slab of clay, then be given their own clay to experiment and create one larger object or two smaller objects of their own.

All materials and firing of pieces are included in the price. (Glazing of your piece(s) is an additional $5, which can be paid at the workshop). Pieces will be fired and available for pick up approximately 2 weeks after the workshop.

For all creative levels, no experience needed.

Led by Ottawa ceramic artist and illustrator Benjamin Woodyard, whose work was on view at Possible Worlds as part of his solo show, Posi~Vibes.
