Calling Ceramic Enthusiasts!

What is sgraffito? It’s a fun and cool technique for drawing on clay! In this upcoming workshop, you’ll create a one-of-a-kind, coffee/tea-themed functional tile trivet set into a pretty metal frame. Using stencils or drawing your own design, you’ll scratch into a layer of chosen color to reveal the lighter clay underneath, creating beautiful contrast. Not a coffee/tea drinker? No problem! You can design your own pattern or choose from a couple of additional stencils provided by the instructor. No drawing or pottery experience needed. If you can trace a shape or make a line, you will love learning this art form.

In this workshop, each participant will design and carve a 6x6-inch ceramic tile, then we’ll attach a metal frame to turn it into a functional, artistic trivet—perfect for your morning coffee mug, your favorite teapot, or as a handmade gift for someone special. The finished piece will measure approximately 8x8 inches.

Completed pieces will be ready for pickup approximately 2–3 weeks after the workshop ends. All materials included.

Please note: These workshops are non-refundable after registration for any reason. If something unexpected comes up, you’re welcome to transfer your registration to a friend. Thank you for your understanding, our instructors purchase materials in advance, and registrations are limited.
