Love making your own dressings and marinades but sick of chopping that sticky garlic and those finicky herbs? Grater bowls come equipped with a garlic grater, herb stripper, and a convenient spout. Local artist and pottery maverick, Mitch Segall, offers a unique opportunity to learn ceramic bowl crafting with some special tools built in that’ll make your time in the kitchen fun and easy. 

During this two-part workshop, you’ll learn all about handbuilding and glazing stoneware. By the end of class, you’ll understand how to properly coil build with clay so that the resulting piece is structurally sound. You'll also learn how to imprint textures and add shapes to create something entirely unique.

When you return for the second date, you'll learn how to apply glaze to your bisque fired bowl using a variety of glazing techniques. 

What activities will you experience?

  • Wedging clay
  • Rolling clay into coils
  • Building coils into a bowl form
  • Smoothing and blending techniques
  • Scoring and slipping to attach pieces
  • Paddling technique
  • Drying techniques
  • Applying detail and color

Once your glaze is set, your pieces will be loaded into the kiln to be fired. All work will be ready for pick up 1-2 weeks after class when the kiln firing is complete. We will call/email to let you know when things are ready.
