Join teaching artist Sophie Nebeker for a two-part introduction to raku ceramics. In the first session, participants will create a hand-built ceramic piece such as a bowl, tile, or decorative object. In the second session, they'll glaze and fire their work using the dramatic Japanese glazing technique of raku, recognized for vibrant colors and unique finishes. No experience necessary. Designed for adults ages 55 and better.

All materials included. Space is limited.
