Handbuilt Servingware: Dip Bowls & Spoons with Ros

$55.00
Waitlist Only

Overview

  • Tuesday, May 27, 6-8pm (1 session)

  • Ages 16 and up are welcome

  • Cost: $50 + $5 materials (all materials are included)

  • Beginners and returners welcome!

In this fun, all-levels pottery class, we will make dip bowls and spoons using our hands and a few simple tools. Finish your day with a couple of hours of creative fun!

Individuals ages 16 and up, with all levels of experience, are invited to join. This is a playful and beginner-friendly technique, and we'll be using a beautiful red clay, to make our servingware extra dramatic. You'll choose your glaze in class, and your work will be ready to pick up within several weeks!

What students are saying about this class:

“Ros is a great teacher! I am the least crafty person I know, and I was able to make some pretty pieces that I am proud of!” -Stacie

About the Instructor:

Ros O’Brien is an artist and studio potter who makes nature-inspired pottery from her home studio in Harrisonburg, VA. She works primarily with textured soft slabs, although her work sometimes incorporates thrown, pinched, or coiled components. Ros is endlessly curious, and has studied a diverse range of ceramic techniques with artists and potters around the globe, including Gail Kendall, Lauren Karle, Bill Griffith, and Ellen Shankin, and she was in the 2020 cohort of Naomi Clement’s Finding Your Voice Mentorship Program. Ros loves teaching, from beginner to advanced handbuilding. She loves to see people come together and learn about each other and themselves through clay, and enjoys the creative and unique ways her students come up with to use classic techniques. She is an instructor at the John C. Campbell Folk School in North Carolina, and the owner of Friendly City Clay & Art Center in Harrisonburg, VA, where she teaches handbuilding.
