CERAMIC SCHOOL

Absalon’s ceramics workshop invites you to a 5-day pottery school from Monday, January 22nd to Friday, January 26th. Alongside other ceramic enthusiasts, you’ll have the opportunity to learn techniques, play with materials, and create beautiful, functional, artistic objects to take home. We’ll also take a little excursion for inspiration.
 

As a starting point, you will hand mold a jug and a vase using pinching, coiling technique and slab technique. You will also try your hand at colour selection and engobes. Absalon’s ceramicist glazes all your pieces after the course.
