1PM – 3PM

The Caviness Brothers, Brad and Bryan will be teaching a workshop on one of their methods of ceramics.  This workshop will introduce the concept of utilizing plastic molds to elevate and distinguish ceramic artwork.

Workshop Breakdown:   The Caviness Brothers will have several examples of plaster molds for class use, as students are walked through the process of mold manipulation.  There will be single open molds and complicated 2–4-piece molds for varying jars, and statues. The instructors will demonstrate by pressing clay into some molds and slip cast into others with clay. This shows different uses for plaster molds and each effect created when used with clay. Students will also be taught how to create their own molds as well.

Beginner to Intermediate clay experience recommended.
