This two-day workshop run by Duncan Shearer is all about a form - the jug (or pitcher).
There’s a rich ceramic history around the form and function of the jug, and participants will spend a couple of days furthering the skills required to master this iconic form. With Duncan’s guidance, they will be making a range of jugs to play with features like spouts and handles.
If possible, participants should bring a basic pottery tool kit (sponge, cutting wire, wooden knife, wooden shark fin rib, steel rib, needle tool and trimming tools) and a sponge on a stick.
Bisque firing of finished pieces can be arranged for an additional cost. Details will be available at the workshop.
This is a throwing workshop, so having some level of throwing experience is crucial. Participants must be comfortable throwing 1kg of clay and, if possible, they should bring their own tools.
This is a two-day workshop which will take place on Monday October 3 (10am to 5pm) and Tuesday October 4 (10am to 1pm).
