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.  URL:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/event/make-a-catalpa-leaf-bowl/ LOCATION:Old School Clay and Ceramics\, 145 Main St\, Groton\, Ma\, 01450 CATEGORIES:Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/catalpa-leaf.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Old School Clay and Ceramics":MAILTO:whistlewood1@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210811T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210811T200000 DTSTAMP:20260427T052632 CREATED:20210802T160911Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210802T164955Z UID:561-1628704800-1628712000@oldschoolclayandceramics.com SUMMARY:Make a Garden Fish (or bird) DESCRIPTION:There are catfish\, dogfish\, why not garden fish? In this workshop\, you will make a fish (or bird)\, about a foot long\, or two smaller\, perfect for adorning your garden.

That is what working with clay is all about. Making a mirror frame is one of the easiest ways to learn about clay and there are so many different styles that are easy and will make your friends think you have been working with clay for decades. You can add clay to make a design\, carve a design\, use stamps\, or use different available textures. Your finished mirror frame will be about 10 by 7 inches. The first class will be spent making the frame\, the second class will be spent glazing\, and the last class will be spent cutting and gluing the glass in and adding a backing\, and wire or string for hanging.  The glass we will be using is mirror glass from mirrors  that have been upcycled glass. The first class will be  August 13\, 20 and 27.  The workshop will meet from 3 – 5  pm on these days.

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 URL:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/event/make-a-spoonrest/ LOCATION:Old School Clay and Ceramics\, 145 Main St\, Groton\, Ma\, 01450 CATEGORIES:Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/00100lrPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20210604085746423_COVER.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Old School Clay and Ceramics":MAILTO:whistlewood1@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20210823T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20210823T170000 DTSTAMP:20260427T052632 CREATED:20210815T234347Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210816T000251Z UID:625-1629730800-1629738000@oldschoolclayandceramics.com SUMMARY:Make a Garden Fish (Or Bird) DESCRIPTION:There are catfish\, dogfish\, why not garden fish?

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 URL:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/event/make-a-toad-or-fairy-house/ LOCATION:Old School Clay and Ceramics\, 145 Main St\, Groton\, Ma\, 01450 CATEGORIES:Workshop ORGANIZER;CN="Old School Clay and Ceramics":MAILTO:whistlewood1@gmail.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
