Looking to learn more ways to experiment with clay? Join us for a beginner mold making and slip-casting class! Mold making is often used to create multiples of identical ceramic pieces, from figurines to wall hangings. Students participating in this two-day workshop will learn how to create a 1-piece plaster mold of a customized vessel. This class will also introduce students to the basics of the slip-casting process. Participants will leave with a ceramic mold of their vessel and slip-casted objects from the workshop. This is beginner friendly, so no experience is necessary!
