Ceramic Christmas Ornament Workshop
November 9 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
Learn how to create, through the art of hand-built pottery, a holiday ornament piece that will be glazed the same day you build it! Karen Eckberg, owner of Owl Arts, will facilitate the workshop and help you create 2 holiday ornaments. Participants will decide on the shape of the ornament (angel, snowflake, wreath, etc.), decide on any texture or personalized touches, and glaze.
All materials are included along with 2.5 hours of hands-on instruction and assistance. Each participant will have the opportunity to create and complete 2 ornaments. Karen will take all items to be dried and fired, then return them to Heritage Hill in about a month’s time for participants to collect.
