Savor the Season: Hand built Summer Platter Workshop (Ages 16+)Celebrate the spirit of gathering in our creative hand building workshop. This session is designed to help you craft the ultimate summer staple: a custom ceramic platter. Whether you envision a centerpiece for a backyard BBQ, a sprawling tray for a coastal clambake, or an elegant server for alfresco appetizers, you’ll create a piece that is as functional as it is beautiful.
In this relaxed, beginner-friendly class, we’ll dive into the fundamentals of working with clay without the need for a pottery wheel. Our instructors will guide you through slab-building techniques, showing you how to cut, shape, and smooth your platter using professional tools and templates. You’ll have the freedom to customize your work with unique textures, decorative rims, or sturdy handles tailored to your favorite seasonal dishes.
Once the building is complete, you’ll select from a curated palette of food-safe glazes to give your piece its final look. Because ceramics require a two-step firing process, your platter will be ready for pickup approximately two to three weeks after the workshop—perfectly timed for your next outdoor feast or sunset picnic. Grab a friend, bring your creativity, and let’s get messy!
