Art & Dining Experience

Part 1: September 7 – Ceramics Workshop with MaryMar KeenanJoin MMclay founder MaryMar Keenan for a hands-on ceramics workshop where you'll craft your own ceramic “canvas”—a flat, tile-like form that will be bisque-fired and ready for painting and hanging. This will serve as the foundation for your artwork in Part 2.

Part 2: September 14 – Painting + Plating with Felicia Forte & Chef Gavin SchmidtOnce your ceramic piece is fired and ready, return to the studio for a guided painting workshop with Felicia. Explore color and abstraction, using your own image or a template inspired by Felicia’s work to paint with acrylics directly onto your ceramic canvas (all levels welcome!)

Afterward, enjoy an exclusive food and colorful plating demonstration by Chef Gavin Schmidt of (James Beard–nominated) and newly opened including four seasonal dishes paired with wines. He’ll plate on MMclay wares and show you how glaze and color interact with food to elevate the visual experience of a meal.
