Spring 2019 Workshops

I run a selection of hands-on workshops from my light and spacious studio in The Delavan Center in downtown Syracuse, NY two blocks west of Armory Square.

Water Basin & Pedestal
Hypertufa Pot & Pedestal

All of my workshops are run as small, informal and friendly groups to ensure that everyone gets the attention they need in a relaxed and supportive environment. 

I’ll share with you all the tips that I’ve gained through trial and error over the years, ensuring you leave the workshop with all the knowledge you need to continue your own adventures at home. Although, we will use some molds, everything you make will be  one-of-a-kind, made by you.
