This workshop will take you deep into how to find, process, and work with raw clay straight from the earth. This one-day intensive will start with a native clay petting zoo, throwing demo, and a discussion of different qualities of native clay bodies and their uses. This will be followed by a presentation on locating and digging your own clay and a demonstration on how to make terra sigillata. This workshop is packed with information not only about clay from the region, but also the qualities of clay in general from a working, geological, and chemistry perspective. Students are encouraged to bring in any samples of native materials to examine.
