This adventure starts out by exploring basic pinch, coil and slab constructions then moves onto building with templates. We'll not only learn how to form pots using the pinch-strip method, but we’ll also use templates and press molds to make awesome cups, vases & trays. By creating our own patterns and textures on the clay surface, it’s a breeze to build pieces which are truly our own.

In this natural dye mini series, you will explore three different natural dyeing techniques on cotton and silk fabrics. First we’ll use an iron indigo vat to dye material after learning shibori resist pattern techniques to make surface design patterns. In our second class leaves and flowers provided will be used to steam botanical prints (bundle dyeing) on silk. The last technique learned will be Hapa-zome (flower pounding) to apply color and patterns on fabric.
