With visiting national artist, Stanton Hunter

This workshop is designed to inspire potters and sculptors to move beyond technical skills and tap into their aesthetic sensibilities, unlocking new strategies and possibilities in their creative process. Through hands-on clay projects focused on contemporary 3D design, visual experiments, engaging discussions, and curated image presentations, participants will explore ways to break through creative blocks and deepen their artistic expression. Whether you’re seeking fresh perspectives or looking to take your work to the next level, this workshop will help you approach your art with renewed creativity and purpose.
