  • Description

David Jo from Flint & Marble is our guest artist for this special Nerikomi workshop.

Nerikomi is a traditional Japanese decorative technique that involves layering, stacking, and slicing colored clays to create intricate, "built-in" patterns that run all the way through the ceramic form.

The Workshop Experience:

  • Learn how to build and compress "canes" or blocks of layered colored clay to create geometric or organic designs.
  • Master precision slicing technique used to uncover beautiful cross-section patterns.
  • Apply your patterned slices to a simple slab-built form to create a one-of-a-kind functional piece, such as a tray or catch-all dish.
  • David will share his signature process and help you navigate the "happy accidents" and intentional designs of colored clay handbuilding.

The Details:

  • Beginner-Friendly: No prior pottery experience required!
  • Materials Included: All premium colored clays, specialized tools, and firing fees included
  • Pickup: Your finished pieces will be glazed and ready for pickup 4–6 weeks later

This session features a curated seasonal color palette selected by David.

Join us for a creative morning of precision and pattern-making!

  • Kintsugi Pottery Workshop with HV Kintsugi

    $90.00
    Join us for a special Kintsugi workshop led by Art Therapist Tara DeLuca. 

    Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery. If a bowl is broken, rather than discarding the pieces, the fragments are put back together, and the cracks are adorned with gold. There are no attempts to hide the damage; instead, it is highlighted. This practice has come to represent the idea that beauty can be found in imperfection!

    A modern Kintsugi approach:

    *Break, paint, and rebuild your own ceramic bowl
    *Create a connection with your piece and your personal journey
    *Highlight the cracks with gold glue, creating a unique design
    *Share your journey collectively or in small groups
    *This is a mindful workshop of self-healing through pottery and art

    Hot tea and snacks will be provided.
