Good Dirt Clay Studio: 'Campfire Clay': Hand-building class

Instructors from Good Dirt Clay Studio, Rob and Jessica, will guide students through the construction of a hand-built functional vessel during a 1 hr class. We will have live demonstrations of burnishing and pit-firing going on throughout the morning, and we will send each participant home with instructions on how to burnish and pit-fire their pieces once they dry.

Event Location: Picnic Shelter #5 across from the Trading Post. Class times begin at 8, 9, 10, and 11 am. Please call the Trading Post office to register. 706-557-3001
