Create your own ceramic mug this season! Saturdays, November 22, 3-6 p.m. (build) & December 6, 2-4 p.m. (glaze) In this hands-on 2-part class, students will learn the slab-building method to create a functional ceramic mug from start to finish. We’ll cover rolling and cutting clay slabs, shaping and joining forms with the help of cylindrical supports, and attaching handles that are both sturdy and comfortable to hold. Students will also have the opportunity to personalize their mug with texture, carving, or underglaze decoration. By the end of class, each participant will have a unique handmade mug that will be glazed and fired for everyday use. This workshop is perfect for beginners, as well as those looking to refresh their clay handbuilding skills. Projects will be ready to pick up 3-4 weeks after the last class. Beginners welcome. Ages 16+ years We recommend that each student bring an apron to wear and an older towel or a cloth rag. • Military, first responders and sibling discounts. • Scholarships available. • Homeschool funds accepted. • If this class is full, join the Interest List to be notified. • If you would like to be notified of future offerings, join the Interest List to be notified when new dates or spaces are available.

Nearly two years since their last San Diego show, Stick Men — featuring Tony Levin, Pat Mastelotto, and Markus Reuter — return to the Bornemann Theatre in San Marcos for a special holiday weekend performance. Formed in 2007, this progressive rock supergroup is known for its bold sound built around touch-style instruments like the Chapman Stick and the custom U8 guitar. Levin (Peter Gabriel, King Crimson) anchors the trio with his legendary mastery of the Stick, while Mastelotto (King Crimson, Mr. Mister) fuses acoustic and electronic percussion, and Reuter adds depth and atmosphere through his innovative compositions. Together, the band’s members have contributed to records selling over 100 million copies worldwide. Opening the night is acclaimed Chapman Stick artist Tom Griesgraber, joined by guitarist Andre Cholmondeley of Project/Object. Griesgraber’s genre-defying performances and collaborations with artists like Steve Hackett, Al Di Meola, and California Guitar Trio promise an unforgettable start to the evening.
