Friday, March 21st, 6:30 - 9:00pm, Arana Hills

Take this opportunity to get down and dirty (muddy, to be exact) on this Dirty Date Night!

Get your friends together and book an evening of fun with mud! Or, bring your very special friend and recreate the infamous scene from 'Ghost' just for fun! This Dirty Date Night gives you the opportunity to discover what it is like to throw clay on a pottery wheel (that's the dirty part), as well as glazing a pre-bisqued cup/tumbler.

Your Clay Date facilitator will demonstrate the wheel throwing technique, and then you have the opportunity to try to create a vessel with her guidance and support. Alison's motto in the studio is "it's only mud", and Clay Dates are designed to be more fun than tuition. In fact, all vessels created on the wheel will be recycled at the end of the workshop (creating a pottery vessel takes multiple processes that is generally completed over a matter of days or weeks). You will create a special memento of your evening, with the opportunity to glaze a handle-less cup (tumbler) using brush-on glazes, tape resist, and decals. The possibilities are almost endless, and many stunning creations have emerged from the kiln after firing the Clay Date work. These will be ready for collection approximately three weeks after the Clay Date.

Each activity will take around an hour, with a short break between where you are invited to enjoy light refreshments on the deck. Feel free to BYO drinks if you would like some frothies or wine.

Once enrolled you will receive an email with information on what to wear, what to bring, and important information for health and safety approximately one week prior to the workshop date.
