Hand Building Workshop: CLOCKS!
5:30 pm – 9:00 pm at 223 Seward St., Juneau, AK
Time to make time… In this one-night hand-building workshop, participants will create one ceramic clock, approximately 8”–12” in diameter. Go as simple and minimal or as creative and wild as you’d like—this class is all about personal style and playful design. We’ll cover the basics of building a functional clock form, then you’ll be set free to create. After your piece is bisque fired, you’ll return during regular shop hours to paint and glaze your clock yourself, paint-your-own-pottery style. All materials are included—including the clock mechanism, wall-hanging hardware, batteries, and your choice of clock hands. Finished clocks will be ready for pickup a few weeks after glazing. No prior experience needed—just bring your creativity (and a willingness to lose track of time in the best way). This class is 18+.
Ticket Information: Please reserve your spot by calling us or visiting our website.
