Pottery Northwest proudly presents this workshop in collaboration with Arte Noir and their upcoming exhibition Black Clay. As part of this partnership, we are delighted to offer this workshop at a discounted price for our community.
In this hands-on workshop with Ryan McDonald, participants will learn simple handbuilding techniques to create their own unique clay cup. This beginner-friendly class moves at a relaxed pace, allowing plenty of time for guidance and creativity. By the end, each person will have a functional piece ready to be glazed and fired, perfect for enjoying coffee, tea, or any favorite drink. No prior clay experience needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to get your hands dirty!
We believe clay is for everyone! Need tuition assistance? Please send us an email at info@potterynorthwest.org for more information.
