Saturday, August 16, from 5 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Ages 13+ years welcome! In this 2.5-hour, beginner-friendly ceramics workshop, you’ll explore the fundamentals of slab building while creating a one-of-a-kind altar infused with memory, meaning, and intention. Your finished piece can serve as a centerpiece for meditation, a space for prayer, or simply a beautiful expression of your personal story. Using slab-building techniques, you’ll design an altar that stands on a tabletop or hangs on the wall—perfect for holding your most cherished items, whether it’s crystals, candles, or that strangely comforting beach rock you’ve carried for years. This project is about shaping a space for reflection, connection, and quiet power. Feel free to bring any personal objects you’d like to incorporate or size your altar around.
