Hands on

Join former residents Cory Brown and Ron Geibel for a weekend of exploring color! Whether you use the wheel, hand build, or both, this workshop is designed to give you different exposure to colored clay. You can expect to learn technical details of working with colored clay, including recipes, how to properly prepare colored clay, and techniques for storage. Our goal is to enable you to expand your ideas, techniques, and color palette through experimentation and fun! Open to intermediate to advanced skill levels.

A public slide lecture will be held on Sunday starting at 5:30.
