In-Person Class: Clay Flower Bowl Workshop

Celebrate Spring by creating floral ceramic bowls inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s flower paintings.

In this class, participants will learn how to create flower-shaped bowls by applying slab technique, layering underglazes, and adding textures to clay with pressed flowers. By the end of class, participants will have made up to four small bowls that can be used as functional stoneware pieces or decorative works of art.

NOTE: The pieces created in this class will need to dry and undergo firing by Amber after the workshop. They will be ready for pick-up at the Museum after up to 3 weeks. Shipping finished pieces is also an option for out-of-town participants.
