School Holiday Workshop | Ceramic Hand Building for Kids

Workshop description: Eloise of Elph Ceramics is excited to offer a creative introduction to ceramic hand building class for teens at Ngununggula. In this class, students will have the opportunity to learn the basics of hand building with clay, creating unique ceramic pieces.

In this introductory course, Eloise will teach students how to prepare and shape the clay, using a variety of hand building techniques like coiling, slab building and pinching. Students will be encouraged to experiment with different shapes and styles. Each student will be able to pick their favourite piece for Eloise to glaze and fire.

Pieces will be available to collect from Ngununggula 2 weeks after the class.
