Service Description

Join ceramics artist Jenny Buelin for this afternoon workshop. Create functional ceramics inspired by the textures, patterns, and quiet stories found in the natural world. In this 1-day workshop, you will learn approachable clay techniques to create a beautiful functional frog style vase for flowers. All experience levels are welcome and no prior clay experience is required. Every surface tells a story. We often remember places and moments through texture before we remember them through words. The veins of a leaf, the weathered grain of wood, a favorite piece of fabric, or the intricate pattern of lace can all become part of a finished ceramic work. In this workshop, we'll design a ceramic vase around the way flowers naturally grow. Rather than forcing stems into a bouquet, you'll build a handcrafted flower frog vase that supports simple, elegant arrangements from your own garden or favorite market. We'll explore how different flower shapes influence the design of the vessel. The finished piece makes arranging flowers effortless while becoming sculpture in its own right. All supplies and kiln firing are included in ticket price.
