Find your center and tap into a meditative focus, while simultaneously enjoying good company and tapping into an adult beverage.

Join 25-year veteran U-High Fine Arts teacher and professional ceramic artist Brian Wildeman in Gordon Parks Arts Hall's fabulous ceramics classroom for an evening of socializing and pottery making. All skill levels are welcome at this workshop and any pieces you wish to keep will be bisque fired.

Return for the Glaze Phase workshop on November 16 and your pieces will be ready to glaze after being fired to ∆6 making them vitreous as well as food, dishwasher, and microwave safe.
