Ancient pinching and coiling methods to sculpt one beautiful vessel.

Form a beautiful vessel under Connie's step-by-step guidance. You will roll and pinch coils into shape, a repetitive and meditative process that will result in a special object full of texture. Perhaps you'll make a vase for your favourite flowers, or a jug that could feature on your dinner party tablescape.

What's included:

+ Complimentary entry to Adelaide Ceramics Market

+ An 80 minute hand building workshop with expert tuition from Connie Augsoustinos, drawing on her experience as an intuitive maker of unique works imbued with patience and meaning.

+ Enough clay to create one beautiful vessel using traditional pinching and coiling methods. Please note that this workshop will focus on vessels similar in shape to a vase or jug, but we are unable to work on bowls or plates in this session.

+ Tools and natural objects to embed texture into the surface of your work.

+ Firing + glazing service after the workshop. Two of Connie's signature glazes will be available for you to select from at the time of the workshop.

+ Packaging and postage of your work to your address in South Australia within 8 weeks of the workshop.

This workshop is suitable for ages 16+ and any skill level.
