The Art Dept

     It's Chardonnay and clay, which means we're playing with clay and sipping on wine all evening! It's air-dry clay, which is soft and moldable and does not to be fired in a kiln. In one 2 hour session we will be making and painting a trinket box and a vase from clay. No experience is necessary, and all materials are provided. Wine, sparkling water and a charcuterie board will be available. Reserve your  seat at the table here  and get ready to play with clay!

 We have some pressing matters to attend to! And by that I mean we're having a workshop devoted to pressing images onto paper and fabric. This is going to be a great time to spend time with something that really matters, like spending time with friends making art together in a cozy warm studio space.  On Saturday, February 21st, we will gather around the table for Pressing Matters: The Joy of Printmaking. Whether you're ever made prints before or not, you will have a productive time of pressing, printing, painting, and getting artwork made.                                     Interested?
