"I have always wanted to try pottery!" This is one of the most commonly heard statements when I am at an art or craft event. For this reason I have created group workshops where you can gather your friends, have fun and create art.
In every workshop participants create 1-2 custom pieces of functional pottery. All supplies and tools are provided. Each participant is able to personalize their artwork through the patterns and/or colors they choose.
Workshops are broken down into two (2) sessions, one for creating your masterpieces and another for glazing. The second session takes place approximately 6-8 weeks after the first.
The completed pieces are food safe, functional and a great as gifts or a lovely addition to your home.
Each workshop is a bit different. The finished artwork which is ALL functional will be unique. Here are a few guidelines to help determine if Pottery by Carrie workshop is right for you.
You've thought about it, talked to some friends and family and your ready for some clay. What do you do next?
