2-Day Immersive Workshop
Join ceramic artist Ben Eberle for a two-day immersive workshop exploring the construction of his beautiful, functional pouring vessels.
Throughout the workshop, Ben will guide participants through creating each component of a pouring vessel, from the initial form to the final assembly.
Over two days, you will learn to throw a large, voluminous form on the wheel; make a spout, lid, and handle; and thoughtfully assemble these parts into a cohesive vessel.
Clay is included.
Firing and glazing are not included.
This is an intermediate workshop. Students should be able to pull a 6" cylinder and feel comfortable centering and throwing 3-5lbs of clay.
