Overview:

In this workshop led by Sierra Bundy, participants will experience a more intuitive, expressive approach to working with clay. This hands-on workshop invites you to release control, trust your instincts, and explore the creative potential of free-formed shapes and spontaneous creation.

Through guided techniques and open-ended exploration, you’ll create either a sculptural piece or a functional vessel that reflects your own rhythm and imagination. Using methods like pinching, coiling, and slab building, you’ll learn how to shape clay in ways that feel fluid, personal, and grounded in the moment.

What is included:

• Clay
• Tools

What to bring:

• A good attitude and a mind open to learning.
• An apron, or comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty
