Saturday is the last day to sign up, so don’t miss your chance! Also, don’t miss tonight’s Opening Reception at the BSSS Gallery for ceramic art exhibition “Volume and Solitude”. Meet the artists and learn about their craft! 5:30–7:30 pm at 22 W. Beverley Street.
We hope you’ve had a fabulous week. We started our first All-Level Beginners Wheel-Throwing Class on Monday and are very happy to be off and running (or spinning 😁). We’re also excited for the coming week, when we’re going to launch our first workshop of the three-part surface-decoration series being taught this summer by Nicole Eyerman Hill.
In sgraffito technique, a colored surface layer is carved or scraped away to reveal the clay beneath, thus creating the design
The first part, Mugs & Sgraffito, is set to begin on Tuesday, June 11. This workshop is designed for potters with some wheel experience, so if you think this could be the one for you, now is the time to grab a spot! Sign-ups close at the end of the day on Saturday, June 8, so don’t miss your chance!
Also, we wanted to remind you that this evening from 5:30–7:00 is the Opening Reception of Volume and Solitude, a really wonderful exhibition (and we can say that because we’ve been there!) at the Beverley Street Studio Gallery(located inside the Co-Art Gallery space at 22 West Beverley St. in downtown Staunton). Check out the Newsleader article about it that was published this week! The exhibition is curated by our very own Janly Jaggard. Don’t miss your chance to meet the artists tonight!
Wishing you all a lovely weekend!
