Overview
Saturday, 5/30, 9am-4pm
Ages 16 and up are welcome
Cost: $125 + $15 materials
Students should be able to center and throw a cylinder
Do you want to learn how to throw taller pieces? Join others with the same goal! In this 1 day workshop, Karis will take time with each student to help them throw taller pieces. This will be an intimate gathering of no more that 6, so that each student will receive lots of individual attention as they throw. Bring a dish to share for a communal lunch so we can talk clay all day!
During the workshop, students will pick a glaze and the studio staff will fire and glaze the pieces to be picked up at a later date.
What students are saying about this teacher:
“In the brief couple of Saturdays I have really come to appreciate not only Karis’ patient instruction, but the sense of community that permeates the building. Being among people who are so joyfully participating in the artistic process is uplifting. Everyone is so willingly helpful, it fills my heart!” -Chris and Beth
About the Instructor:
Karis has been making a living as a potter for over 40 years, selling at art fairs and through galleries. She took an adult education class in MA one winter and bought a pottery wheel before she could even throw a good pot, thinking it would be a hobby. After taking more classes at some museum schools in the Boston area, she bought a kiln and hasn't looked back.
When making her pottery her goals are to make something useful and to give visual pleasure. Her work has been influenced by living and traveling in Southeast Asia and Europe. But it is also influenced by her Norwegian ancestry which gives her an affinity for the clean Scandinavian sense of design in regard to form, as well as the Norwegian love of nature.
