SUMMARY:Holiday Clay Workshop with Jenna Ross
DESCRIPTION:Join Jenna Ross at the River Art Centre (8746 Main St\, Florenceville-Bristol) for a festive and fun clay workshop! \nIn this workshop you’ll be lead through making a handbuilt snowman sculpture and guided on how to make ornaments. Everyone will decorate their pieces using underglazes. All work will be fired and clear glaze coated for pickup at a later date – in time for Christmas! \nThis workshop runs from 10AM-4PM with an hour lunch at noon. You are welcome to bring or buy your lunch. No experience is necessary\, just a willingness to try and get messy! Come with an open and curious spirit – clay can be delightful but sometimes unpredictable. \nStudents are welcome to bring their own cookie cutter shape\, pattern/texture options like stamps or an old doily you don’t mind getting dirty\, or anything else of the sort you want to try! \nNote: Longer nails can make working with clay trickier!!! \nDate: Saturday\, November 29 \nTime: 10AM-4PM \nCost: $38 *No refunds on cancellations within 7 days of workshop \nLocation: River Art Centre – 8746 Main Street\, Florenceville-Bristol
