Holiday Serving Dish Class with Michelle Mulligan

About this event

We love our classes lead by Michelle Mulligan and we have invited her to the barn again! Join Michelle this for a Holiday Serving Dish project!

Michelle Mulligan has been an artist all of her life. While she dabbled in pottery, most of her art career focused on drawing, watercolors, pastels, charcoal, and oil. While living in Northern Virginia, she worked at the Smithsonian Associates Studio Art Program where she had the opportunity to show a painting at the S.Dillion Ripley Center at the Smithsonian Institute.

Ten years ago, Michelle returned to pottery and the endless possibilities of form, decoration, use, and feel of uniqueness of being hand made. She tries to imagine each piece in the hands of the user. Michelle believes that pottery helps us keep in mind our history, permanence and satisfying use of earth's resources.

In this workshop, Michelle will teach us the basic hand building clay skills. We will make a butter dish in this class. These make great gifts for yourself or someone else - handmade by you! Michelle will then take these pieces home to fire and you will be able to pick them up here or at our Home for the Holidays event in December. Photos below are from a Spring Pottery class we hosted earlier this year.
