Event
Mini Ceramics Workshop: Majolica Magic
Jul 12, 2022 9AM-12PM
CONCEPT: Students learn the historically rich and colorful technique of majolica glazing, a process where colorful imagery is painted over a white glaze ware. This wonderful ceramic technique is pretty similar to watercolor painting on paper and allows participants to treat the surface of the pieces as a canvas. Participants are guided through developing imagery and transferring it onto glazed bisque bowls. Each participant can paint up to 4 ice cream bowls.
MEDIA: Low temperature, commercial bisque ware, majolica, ceramic washes, brushwork
Workshop participants ages 13 and up will be required to show proof of Covid-19 vaccination (i.e., two weeks have passed after receiving the second dose of either the Moderna or Pfizer MRNA vaccines or the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine). Additionally, if six months have passed since completing the Moderna or Pfizer series or two months have passed since receiving the J & J vaccine, then a booster is also required. Ideally the booster would have been administered at least two weeks prior to coming to Anderson Ranch. Click here to view our full Health & Safety Plan.
