Hands On

October 2, 2023 @ 11:00 am - October 29, 2023 @ 6:00 pm

The art of ceramics is a combination of making mud pies and crushing rocks. Clay is a refined mud pie. But creative hands-on play is hardly confined to childhood. From coiling, working with slabs to throwing on the potter’s wheel the tactile and malleable properties of clay is what draws the ceramic artist to use this medium. From mud pies come unlimited forms in a range of finishes. Come to the gallery this month during Arts Safari (date to be determined) and touch the clay that ceramic artists use in creating their work and see what it means to ‘pinch a pot’. Featuring the Kiln Club.
