5/8/21 - Pottery Houses for Birds Toads and Fairies Hand Built Textured Pottery Houses with Jean Skipper
Express yourself!
Join Jean Skipper on Saturday, May 8th between 12:00 and 3:00 when she'll lead you in clay handling, slab construction, texturing, and design as you create a One-of-a-Kind North Carolina Pottery House similar to the one shown in these photos. (Snail optional!)
If 1 just isn't enough, an extra may also be created at an additional cost. This option is available only at the time of registration, and up to 1 extra House per guest may be made in a single class session.
The sky is the limit as you form, texture, shape, and embellish these treasures, and the pieces that you make are sure to become family heirlooms. (They make wonderful gifts too!)
Beginners are welcome, and those age fourteen and older are invited to attend. Parents with younger children may register for 2 class seats together, in order to join them in class.
The all inclusive price of this class includes supplies,tool usage, glaze selection, kiln firing, and instruction.
We are now offering two glazing options with all of our Pottery Classes. They are as follows:
- The first will allow you to select a single glaze color during class. Pottery pieces will then be dried, cleaned, kiln fired, glazed by the instructor, dried, and kiln fired again. When this process is complete, within 4 weeks, you'll be notified to pickup your finished pieces.
- The second will allow you to glaze their pottery yourself. After class, your pieces will be dried and kiln fired. When they're back in the gallery, you'll be notified that pottery is ready for glazing, and you'll be invited to join us for a Glazing Session. After glazing, pottery will be dried and kiln fired again, and you'll be notified when it's back in the gallery for pickup. (The final photo here shows just a few of the glaze colors that will be available to you.)
If you have any questions about our glazing options, please contact us at 910-245-4129 or info@ARTworksVass.com.
In either case, we'll update you again when your pottery is ready for pickup.
