• Ceramic Mask Making

Adults & Ages 14+ · $200 · 3 Weeks · 2 hrs. Each Session · Project clay included

3-Week Workshop - 2 hr. sessions + Group Clean-Up

In this three-week workshop, students will explore the process of creating expressive ceramic wall masks through hand building and sculptural clay techniques. Participants will learn how to design, construct, and refine their own hanging mask while developing an understanding of form, texture, surface, and symbolic expression in clay.

The workshop will cover foundational ceramic skills including clay preparation and wedging, slab construction, additive and subtractive sculpting methods, joining and reinforcing clay forms, hollowing techniques, and strategies for preventing cracking during drying and firing. Students will also learn how to build dimensional facial features, create surface texture, and incorporate sculptural details that give each piece a distinct personality and presence.

Masks have long carried deep symbolic and spiritual meaning across cultures—used to transform, conceal, protect, and embody forces beyond the self. Students are encouraged to explore themes of guardianship, personal mythology, ritual, transformation, and the shadow self while developing their own unique visual language. Finished works may function as sculptural wall pieces intended for indoor or outdoor display.

The final week of the workshop will focus on surface decoration, glazing, and finishing techniques, including the use of washes, underglazes, texture enhancement, and glaze application to bring depth and character to each mask. 

No prior ceramic experience is necessary. Clay + Bisque + Glaze fire included in price.
