There are two separate sessions of this workshop. Friday, September, 19 at 2:00 PM and Saturday, September 20 at 2:00 PM.
Spirituality in general always includes restoring connection. From my experience of doing pottery over 10 years, pottery in that sense, is not just a craft but also a spiritual practice of being in touch with the soil in a tactile way, being in touch with your body, being in touch with your inner creativity.
During this workshop, we will learn different techniques for hand building, which includes slab building, coiling, or pinching. Due to the limits of space, each session will accommodate limited number up to 6 participants, and you may inquire other specific dates of your own if you are registering with someone (non-parishioners are welcome as well).
This time, we are carving already thrown pieces to make a lantern. These are for the occasion of our 125th anniversary on October 26th. If you are not a parishioner, you can still participate. Come and join, learn and get to know wonderful people at our parish.
The materials and kiln will be offered by Hand Eye pottery studio. To get the final piece, it will take about 2-4 weeks. Once it is bisque fired, you will get an email to choose which glaze you would like to use. The fee is for the material and firing fee. The fee will be dterminded by the size of the object, and I expect the fee to be approximately $5.00 for a cup, $10.00 for larger and taller objects. Please register at james@abbotsfordanglican.ca
