Adult Studio Workshop

Create a suggestive vessel in this three-session ceramics workshop taught by artist Kristen Jensen and inspired by the distinctively abstracted human figures in the exhibition Rachel Feinstein: Maiden Mother Crone.

Working with clay, participants will receive instruction in hand-building techniques such as pinch pot, slab, and coil construction to shape an expressive form. After finishing with underglazes, burnishing, slip, and carving patterns, the works will be kiln fired and completed in the studio with wax finish, paint, and other decorative elements.

Adult Studio Workshops provide all materials and welcome all skill levels.
