Vase Workshop (8/9)
Vase Workshop (8/9)
Date: Saturday, August 9th
Time: 10:30 am- 12:30 (Same day optional painting from 1:45-4:45 pm)
Cost: $130
Ages: 12+ (Each minor must be enrolled with a participating adult)
Location: Outdoors in my Scappoose garden @ 2nd St + Maple St
During this workshop, I will walk you through the process of creating a slab-built custom vase. This workshop will take place during peak flower season in my garden (micro flower farm), and each participant will be able to bring home a complimentary bouquet. All materials included.
Make a day of it! Schedule:
Make: The construction portion of this workshop will be from 10:30 am-12:30 pm. Please arrive promptly so we can take full advantage of our construction timeline.
Lunch break: We will break for lunch from 12:30- 1:45 pm. You can bring a sack lunch and enjoy it at a nearby park or grab food from one of the local food trucks at The Lodge. We will need time for your pieces to dry, and I will use this time to switch the setup from clay to painting.
Optional Painting Opportunity 1:45-4:45: If you would like your vase to be a color other than white, you will have the opportunity to return after lunch to “under glaze” paint your piece. I will do a short lecture and demo on various application techniques. Then it will be a bit of an open study hall where you will be able to paint your vase.
After the workshop, all pieces will go through a glazing and two-part firing process. Vases can be picked up on Saturday, September 6th, from a table just inside the garden from 10:30 am-5 pm. If you are unable to collect your piece in Scappose on 8/9, you can pay an additional $15 to have me mail it directly to you. Please be mindful that there may be a workshop in progress when you arrive, so I will already have your piece wrapped and bagged with your name on it.
All skill levels are welcome
