Tea and coffee will be provided. Bring your own lunch.

Led by artist Bethany Neck, this workshop invites you to explore what brings joy to your life. Drawing on inspiration from images, words, patterns and colours, you will create a unique design that is personal and meaningful, using your preferred art materials. You will then decorate a ceramic platter with your design using underglazes and a clear glaze to finish. The platters will then be fired in our own kiln and available to collect a week or two after the workshop.

Step 1 - Through shared discussion, you’ll associate images, words, patterns or colors to each item on your list.

Step 2 – On a piece of paper you’ll create a simple design that’s unique and meaningful to you!

Step 3 – Once your design is complete, you’ll decorate a square ceramic platter with your design using underglazes and a clear glaze to finish off.

Step 4 - Platters should be available for collection one to two weeks after the workshop and we will contact you once they have been fired*.

All materials provided.

Please start collecting images, photos, patterns or symbols that reflect joy in your life and bring them to the Workshop.

To simplify choices, you may decide to use photos or magazine pictures of local animals, flora and fauna as your choice of images. Bethany will have some stencils and images available and you may also use your phone or tablet to google images if necessary.

Joyful images might include: cultural influences, beliefs, symbols, favourite activities, significant others, events, dreams and aspirations.

*We are awaiting delivery of a kiln and expect that it will be delivered by November, however in the case that the shipping is delayed, then the platters may not be available until December or even until the new year.
