Alchemy Art Center: Slab Mugs with Creative Surfaces
Play with a variety of underglaze techniques on slabs, and create a one-of-a-kind slab constructed mug!
In this one-day class, students will learn how to make their own underglaze transfers using newsprint, which can be applied to slabs along with stenciled underglaze designs, direct underglaze painting, mishima, and sgraffito. They will then use provided templates (or create their own) to cut and assemble a mug (or two!) from their slabs. All materials will be provided, and student work will be fired and clear-glazed by studio staff.
This class is taught by Alchemy staff member and multimedia artist Glenn Hendrick.
This class is held at the ceramics studio at 1255 Wold Rd. Directions and parking information will be included in your confirmation email.
Registration: Please register early if you are able, as it helps us to assure that classes meet their minimums in order to run! If you register more than three weeks before this class begins, a 20% early bird discount will automatically be applied to your ticket at checkout.A Note on Ticket Pricing: We are experimenting with offering sliding-scale tickets in order to keep our classes accessible to as many community members as possible. There are three price tiers. Sustaining tickets helps us continue to invest in programming. Full-price tickets cover the costs associated with running classes. Accessibility tickets are priced below what it costs for us to run a class. If the cost of a full-price ticket is a hardship, we encourage you to purchase a sliding-scale ticket. If you can pay the full price or sustaining price, please choose that option so we can keep providing arts programming to the community.
In addition to sliding scale pricing, tuition assistance is also available for Alchemy classes and workshops if finances are a barrier. Apply for tuition assistance here.
