Ceramics Open Studio: Summer Edition (Summer Institute | In Person)

Our open ceramics studio is a space to connect and create in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere. Show up to make and connect alongside friends new and old. We’ll use Jewish texts as inspiration for our work, enjoy snacks and drinks, and learn a wide variety of clay hand-building skills as well as decorative and finishing techniques. All pieces will be fired professionally in our TBE kiln. Feel free to utilize the full time or drop in for an hour or two. Whether you’re a beginner or have experience with clay, all skill levels are welcome. A trained ceramics guide will be present to support your journey!

Dates: July 8, 6:00—9:00 pm, July 10, 6:00—9:00 pm, July 11, 11:00 am—2:00 pm, July 17, 6:00—9:00 pm, July 18, 11:00 am—2:00 pm, July 22, 2:30—5:00 pm, July 23, 6:00—9:00 pm, July 25, 11:00 am—2:00 pm
