SUMMARY:Make a Leaf Print Platter
DESCRIPTION:How many leaves do you recognize from the platter below? I love finding ways to incorporate nature into the things I make. This platter is not only very functional but really pretty\, too! Using leaves and flowers from around my house\, you are welcome to bring your own\, you will make a ceramic platter that when finished is about 9 x 5 inches.  It will be dishwasher safe\, microwavable and oven proof.  \nThis is a great project for you to do with your child.  It is very easy\, and everyone will find success with it\, no matter the level of proficiency. The class will be offered Wednesday\, 1 and 8\, from 7 to 9 pm.  The class will be limited to 8 students.  The first class will focus on making the platter and arranging the leaves. This will take about an hour. The second class will focus on  getting the platter ready for glaze and glazing. The second class will take about an hour. \nFor tickets\, click here: platter

SUMMARY:Mask Making and Green Man
DESCRIPTION:Using a variety of techniques\, we will make a green man sculpture\, that will look handsome hanging in your yard or garden. The history of the “Green man” is unclear. He  can be found in many cultures going back centuries. The one thread that runs through all these cultures is the symbolism of rebirth.  Given the last year\, this seemed a fitting symbol to acknowledge and celebrate.  History of green man \nJoin us as you are led through the steps to make your sculpture. This is a 3 day workshop. The first day will be spent making the the mask\, adorned with leaves. While I will show you how to make the sculpture\, there is no limit to how your creativity can influence what the final product will look like. This class will likely take the full 2 hours. The second class we will will finish the sculpture and clean it up and underglaze it so it is ready for the kiln. This class may take between 30 minutes to an hour\, depending on how much was accomplished the first class. The last class will be spent glazing the sculpture. This last class will also likely take the full 2 hours. \nThe days of the classes will be Sunday\, August 8\, 13 and 29\, from 3 – 5 pm.  Click here for tickets: mask \nThe image of the green man was done by an unknown artist. We will be making something similar\, about 15 inches square\, limited only by your imagination. Your sculpture\, once completed\,  could hang outside all year in a protected place.  \n

SUMMARY:Make a Catalpa Leaf Bowl
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nCatalpa trees grace our roadsides and yards. Giant fast growing trees with beautiful white flowers. What is most unique about catalpa trees\, though\, are its huge leaves. Often a foot long\, they make great natural formed bowls or dishes. They have wonderful unique veining that easily transfers to the dishes. Hosta leaves are likewise as big and can also be used\, but their veining system is not as interesting. Leaves will be provided and you can choose the leaf you want to use\, or you can bring your own. (Nothing bigger than a foot long\, though\, please) The class is limited to 8 people and will take two sessions\, August 10 and 17 from 3 – 5 pm. The first session will focus on making the dish\, the second session\, the following week will focus on cleaning up the dish to prepare it for glazing and then actual glazing.  Click here for tickets: catalpa leaf \nThis is a great way to introduce young children to clay.

SUMMARY:Make a Garden Fish (or bird)

SUMMARY:Make a Spoonrest
DESCRIPTION:There is so much that is good about learning to make pottery! To take a lump of clay and transform it into something beautiful – that is also functional\, is so incredibly satisfying. A spoon rest is one of those things that is functional\, but also has so much versatility in terms of design. (Also\, they make great presents!)  There is no end to how creative you can get with your design.  \nWorking from a template and mold\, you will make three spoon rests that reflect your own own style! One spoon rest will be similar to the one shown using a magnolia leaf (or bring your own leaf from home)\, another will be the more traditional spoon  rest\, the third allows you to tap into your own creativity and create your own design.  \nThe first day of this two day workshop will be spent making the actual spoon rests. Depending on how much detail you include\, or how much you branch out on your own design\, it will take a little over an hour. The second class will also take around an hour for glazing.  \nThe class is limited to 8 people\, and will take place on Thursday afternoon\, August 19 and 26\, from 3-5 pm.  \nFor tickets\, click here: spoonrests \n \nStudent Made\n \nStudent Made using hosta leaf

SUMMARY:Make a Toad or Fairy House
DESCRIPTION:What?! You say your toads and garden fairies are homeless? Now\, you can build them their very own safe and secure home\, out from under foot\, perfect for your garden. This particular house is ten inches tall and 7 inches wide. \nYou will make a ceramic home using slabs of clay and different textures to create that one of a kind home. You will be led through basic construction\, and helped to design any embellishments you want to add\, within the time allowed. The first class\, August 24 from 3 to 5 pm\,  will be spent constructing the home\, the second\, August 31 from 3 to 5 pm\, will be spent glazing. After you make and glaze your house\, your finished house will be available for pick up\, at Prescott\,  within 2 weeks. \nBoth classes will likely take the full two hours allotted.  This workshop is limited to 8 people.  \nAll ages welcome\, though I recommend age 10 and above.  What a great way to spend time with the family before school starts.  \nTheoretically\, these houses can be left out all winter\, but it is not advisable. \nFor tickets\, click here: Toad House \nToad and Fairy Houses made by other students: \n	\n\n		20190115_084754-e1547561777311-169x300-1\n\n		\n				\n						\n		\n\n		\n		\n\n			\n				\n					\n				\n			\n\n			\n				\n					\n				\n			\n\n			\n				Image				1				of				8
