Description

Nest on the Main is excited to announce a new workshop with artist Raffaela Vergata of Sunken Orchard Ceramics. Join us May 14 as she teaches us the ceramic technique of Handbuilding a clay "pinch pot." This class is perfect for first-time potters who have no problem getting their hands dirty. You will learn the ancient technique of methodically pinching clay between the thumb and fingers while making a bowl or cup.

Step-by-step, Raffaela will show you how to shape a ball of clay, and she'll include inspirational tips on creating a one-of-a-kind ceramic creation. Following the demonstration, you'll have the opportunity to make two of your pieces to bring home.

Each attendee will receive a Nest store coupon exclusive to this event.

For your safety, this class will be limited to 6 attendees to maintain social distancing.

Thank you for your cooperation.
