Sept 23 to 26 or Sept 27 to 30.

If you are interested in this class please call 783 -1117

In this workshop, students will have the opportunity to have a full hands-on experience in creating a bowl or sculptural piece. You will explore and experiment with numerous kiln-forming techniques and design elements/inclusions, pattern bars, cane, custom frit, murrini, and apply these to your own personal style. The class cost is $900 all materials included. Check out Patty's web sitewww.pattygray.com
