Adult Art Class: Ceramic making
with artist Clare Caron

Celebrate Imbolc, St Brigid's Festival and spring beginnings with our Adult Art Class Ceramics with artist Clare Caron on 10th February.

Materials provided. Lunch Break is from 1-2pm (Lunch is not included).
€75

Class size limited to 12 people.

Taking inspiration from the New Year and St. Brigid, participants will make small rounded, refined clay bowls. This full day course will lead the class through the use of simple sgraffito, incising, embossing and sprig-mould relief techniques and natural oxide colours to decorate. The final work will result in three unique nesting bowls, displaying the various techniques taught in the class. Working with air drying clay and no glaze, will allow participants to bring home their creations at the end of the class.

This Adult Art Class is suitable for everyone, no prior experience with clay or sculpture is necessary. The class will provide a creative, enjoyable, tactile experience, with each participant having sculptural creations to take home, ready for display.
