Summer Workshops at the Dougherty


I'm introducing new workshops at the DAC in Austin this summer. Coming very soon is "Saucy Pouring Pots" on Monday 23 June. This one-day hands-on workshop will offer both hand building and wheel throwing possibilities. At $60 for a full day, it's a great way to squeeze in some quality clay time between summer travels.

 
July 21st is "Building with Original Textures" and more to come.
