Story Telling Pottery, Oct 22–Dec 3 at Madjax

Adults age 55+ are invited to gather for a five-session workshop series where you will learn a variety of basic pottery techniques to create your own dinnerware set. These sessions will bring together the skills of pottery with the craft of meal making to tell stories about the meals and foods we love and have enjoyed in the past. Participants will learn basic hand-building pottery techniques including: clay preparation and treatment, basic pottery-ware construction such as bowls and cups as well as decorating techniques. The fifth and final workshop will be a potluck meal using pottery made during the workshop. Face masks are required to participate.

Join us for a pottery class! Learn to hand build wall- or ceiling-mounted clay ornaments, mobiles and bells. No previous experience is necessary to register. Face mask is required. Drop in or secure a space by emailing info@clay-wood.com, or call (616) 540-7419.
