We’re back with another Clay Play! Join for a fun afternoon of exploration and experimentation.

In this 3 hour workshop, you will learn the main handbuilding techniques (pinch, coil, and slab), then put them into practice with guided creative time to make up to two finished pieces. This workshop includes 2 lbs of clay per student, tools, optional underglaze for painting on illustrations, glazes of your choice (clear, white, black, or forest green), and kiln firings. If you’d like to fire more than two pieces, additional pieces can be purchased at the workshop for $10 each.

Items will be fired and can be picked up at While on Earth 4-5 weeks after the class.

Join artist Victoria Dusseau in this all levels workshop to explore the tools and techniques involved in the timeless practice of oil painting. You’ll use a photo as a reference for this workshop and will be guided through interpretation of the image with a focus on composition, lighting, and color depth.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own photograph as a reference (printed on copy paper is fine). We recommend a simple still life, ideally in a bright (or sunny) spot where you can see a shadow. Good examples include: a piece of pottery, a cup, a jar, food, sardines, a fork, a matchbox, box of something, bottle of something, a book, a candle… or any combination of those items. Anything that brings you joy. If you are a beginner, stick to something more simple. All materials are included.
