(ceramic) Butter Dishes Workshop @ Ilwaco Artworks
Jun 1 @ 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm
(ceramic) Butter Dishes Workshop @ Ilwaco Artworks

Handbuilding Butter Dishes w/Taylor Stefanski. 6/1. 2-6p. $72.

In this one day workshop students will create and take home their very own butter dish! We will cover how to roll out and prep slabs, how to use a template and add adornments at the end. All levels welcome, ages 16 and up. 

Bio: Her work is deeply inspired by the sea. Explores ideas of imperfection and honors the nature of the tides through meditative repetition. Expressed in the chosen hand building process – each of their pieces are created primarily using a coil building technique. Where she rolls each coil by hand to create unique, one of a kind forms.

Graduated from Cornish College of the Arts with a focus on printmaking and sculpture. Their ceramic work is carried in a variety of stores in Seattle, Portland and LA. She currently works and teaches in her studio in Capitol Hill. https://www.tstefanski.com/

Glazing & Surface Decoration Techniques Workshop @ Ilwaco Artworks
Jun 15 @ 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm

Jun 15

Glazing & Surface Decoration Techniques Workshop

w/visiting artist, w/Charlotte Deason Robillard $80

Students will learn about a variety of ceramic surface decoration techniques. We will provide each student with a bisqued tumbler that they’ll decorate and glaze during the workshop; students are also welcome to bring a piece of their own bisqued work. We’ll go over masking and resistance methods, overlapping glazes, painting with underglazes, using stencils, and techniques for getting clean precise surface designs as well as more organic freehand designs. No previous ceramics experience is required.

Saturday 2-6p

Location: Ilwaco Artworks
