Humans have formed and fired clay objects for thousands of years, turning mud-like material into stone-like material for reasons that range from utilitarian to reverential to aesthetic.  In this workshop, led by Abigain Donovan, participants will be introduced to elemental hand-building techniques, with the option to have one piece fired in the UD ceramics studio kilns.  Bring your ideas or ask for inspiration!  No prior experience necessary, all tools provided. 

Registration is required; seats are limited.
