If you are interested in learning how to work with clay or produce handmade paper, come and take a creative, hands-on workshop at Stoney Creek Studio.

No experience is required. All three hour sessions are $30, with materials provided. Groups and children are welcome!

Please contact me for details on available dates.

Pottery
The basic techniques of handbuilding are taught to new participants and attainable projects are introduced. As your confidence increases, you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish. All ages and experience levels are welcome to come and create!

Papermaking
The fun of making paper is experienced as you learn how to pull and couch sheets of paper. Then, you can form sheets with inclusions or using several colours. People of all ages can produce beautiful and useful sheets and envelopes.

Pressed Flowers
In this workshop, you will assemble your own flower press from provided materials. Then a walk in the meadows, forest, and gardens surrounding my studio will yield enough plant material to fill your new press! Finally, some sample projects will be presented using pressed flowers and grasses.
