Spirit Vessel Workshop with Richard Flores
September 20 – 22, 2013
This
three-day workshop will explore historic and personal approaches to the
vessel. Participants will create small vessel forms, along with
two-dimensional studies, that marry historic exploration and
self-expression. The workshop will culminate in a raku-firing of the
vessels, which the participants will in turn take home with them.
Journey to the Center of YOUR Earth Workshop
with Richard Flores
October 18 – 20, 2013

natural and man-made materials to promote awareness of the relationship
between the earth and civilization. The work of diverse individuals,
including Marcel Duchamp, Nader Khalili, Edward Kienholz, Robert
Rauschenberg, Andy Goldsworthy, Kurt Schwitters, Joseph Cornell, James
Turrell, Robert Smithson and others will be explored. Selected works
will be presented in an exhibition at the Center in 2014.
Post Pre-Pottery Figurine Workshop
with Allison Newsome
November 7 – 10, 2013 (Note new date!)
This four-day workshop will share information gleaned from a recent twelve-week workshop presented at Harvard by Allison Newsome.
The workshop at the Center will share Newsome’s experience with this
project and explore Neolithic pre-pottery figurines (5,000.00-3,000.00
BC) as a metaphor and point of departure for clay sculpture.

Thanks Elise for sharing your work and website with us. Below is a bit that she wrote me regarding her business. I love the idea of a pottery class as opposed to a paint your own pottery approach!
A little background: my business is geared toward experiential tourism –
living in a tourist town, I teach 2-hour ‘Make Your Own Pottery’
classes (as opposed to ‘paint-your-own.”) My Facebook page is mostly
about student work – all the photos are of pottery done in those 2
hours, or a special ongoing kids class.
My webpage has images of my pots and info about my classes. There are
links to info for my community college students, too, on history of
clay, etc.
