Pottery Carving Technique Workshop

With Frank DeFabo

February 4 | 5:30-8:30 PM

In this three-hour workshop for intermediate potters, instructor Francis DeFabo will demonstrate carving techniques. You may bring one or two leather hard pieces (mug, vase, etc) or select from pieces the instructor has available for purchase. Leather hard tiles will be available for you to practice the technique before working on the final form(s). You will select from several glaze choices that we will apply after we bisque your pieces. Tools will be available, and a basic carving set is included in your materials fee that will be yours to keep! Feel free to bring your favorite tools as well. Once finished, we'll bisque fire them for you and glaze in a color of your choice. After the glaze firing, we'll notify you to pick up your work via email. Please pick up work within 2 weeks of your notification.

Please Note:

  • Tuition is due with registration unless other arrangements are made. If you cancel 0-7 days before the class start date, we are able to refund your tuition ONLY if we can fill your space from our waitlist. We are not able to issue partial refunds or transfer your registration to another class. We apologize for any inconvenience, but we cannot under ANY circumstances refund your tuition once you have started the classes.
  • Art is a messy business! Please bring an apron or wear work clothes and shoes that can get dirty with clay/paint/etc.
  • Bring a hair tie if you have long hair.
  • Leave your rings, smartwatches, and jewelry at home. Main Exhibit Gallery & Art Center is not responsible for lost or damaged personal items.
  • We ask that you pick up your pots within 2 weeks of your notification that they're ready. We have so many classes that our space can get quite full with students' work! Any pots left behind after 2 weeks without prior arrangements will be added to our "Adopt a Pot" shelf in our main gallery space.
