JamFactory’s two-year practical studio based program provides emerging craftspeople and designer-makers with professional and creative development opportunities unavailable anywhere else in Australia.

Paper clay conference and workshops (limited spots available so register early)
Intent is to bring paper clay artists, students and interested learners together and put on an event, with outstanding instructors, a well equipped on-site studio/lab and a venue to nurture your soul all in the beautiful, artist community of Laguna Beach, California.
WORKSHOPS
This workshop is for the beginner or advanced paper clay artist and is packed with tips for building figurative or abstract forms, murals, vessel forms, tiles, bas relief and large pieces. During the four days, you will be exposed to a colorful array of techniques for building and working with paper clay from joining dry, hyper-texture techniques, fired and unfired sculptures, and speed casting rather than the more traditional slip casting.
Workshops consist of four full days of demonstrations (participants will spend two-full days with each artist, Monday – Thursday), information exchange, and hands-on opportunities with two of the world’s premier paper clay artists, Rosette Gault (Washington) and Graham Hay (NZ/Australia).
