Explore the striking contrast and expressive detail of sgraffito as you carve bold designs into a prepared clay bowl.

Discover the beauty of sgraffito, a classic pottery decorating technique that combines layered underglaze with hand-carved detail. In this workshop, participants will start with a premade leather-hard clay bowl, apply underglaze, and then carefully incise designs to reveal the clay body beneath. The result is a striking, high-contrast pattern that transforms a simple vessel into a one-of-a-kind functional artwork. Participants must plan to return to the Studios three weeks after class to pick up their creations after kiln firing.
