This hands-on workshop in Northwest Tucson will explore the exciting possibilities of hand building functional pots with impressed clays slabs from plaster tablets inscribed with pattern, textures or drawings. The techniques take their inspiration from 15th century Spain.

Demonstrations and studio work will include techniques demonstrated to make a teapot. Other forms will be demonstrated with time permitting participants including a small handled basket and cup and saucer. We will use plaster press molds to create pottery forms with decorated surface treatments.
Because of the individual instruction provided, space is limited to 8 participants.
