Here are some workshops we did in the  Summer of  2004:

 

Standing Figures inspired by the Terracotta Chinese Soldiers.  Two Children ages 10-12 worked with one instructor for four two hour days. Each student made one 14” figure. They will be glazed later in the Fall.

 

Garden Tile Markers was the theme for the students of Sayre High School in Philadelphia. 12 Students ages 16 worked with 4 instructors to produce vegetable markers for a new garden that the children were involved in creating. The students had to create a three dimensional vegetable and design the front and back of a 14”x8” marker. The students used underglaze pencils to inscribe nutritional information on the tiles. This was a four day project each day the students worked for 3 hours.

 

Birthday Party Pottery Class for all ages

 

Private Lessons, make great gift ideas.
