Altered Forms and Surface Texture Workshop

In this hands-on workshop, Morty will demonstrate how to transform wheel thrown pots into a work of art where they will "move from the kitchen to the living room." In addition to the above techniques, advanced throwing methods will be covered (e.g., large bowls, closed forms, etc.). The knowledge gained in this workshop will alter your thought process about pottery dramatically. Intermediate pottery throwing skill is required.

 

When: Sunday, March 25, 10-4PM

Altered Bowl
