Dssolvr Feb 3 Pints and Pottery: Mushroom Sculptures
Date: Monday, February 3, 2025, 6pm-8:30pm (Please arrive early if you plan to order a beverage before class. Plan to end on time.)
Location: Dssolvr Brewery, 630 Rigsbee Ave, Durham, NC 27701
Enjoy a beverage at Dssolvr Brewery in Durham, NC while you build, sculpt, and paint your own mini mushroom and snail sculptures! You will be provided with 1 pound of clay and several colors of underglaze to choose from.
I will teach you how to make miniature mushroom and snail sculptures. After creating a few, you may paint them with underglaze.
At the end of class, I will take your creations to my studio to be fired, waxed, clear-glazed, and fired again. They can be kept outside in the garden or inside the house! Your sculptures will be available for pick-up at Dssolvr in Durham once they are finished.
***Very important*** Pottery is a bit of science and a lot of physics, and random things happen in the creation process. I will try my absolute best to care for your creation from start to finish, but strange things do happen as slabs dry, such as cracking and warping. I will explain how you can likely prevent them while we are sculpting, but I’m always surprised by what clay will do. By signing up for this class, you accept the fate of the kiln gods, and there are no refunds or replacements for projects that do not survive the process.
Your dishes will be available for pick-up at Dssolvr in Durham once they are finished. Please choose local pickup/delivery for the shipping option to avoid shipping fees.
