Day two will be spent learning how to finish your pieces with professional and food-safe glazes. This workshop is the perfect way to spend your afternoon in a creative and welcoming environment. Call Julie to reserve your spot!
Please allow at least 2 weeks between day 1 and day 2 to ensure your piece has sufficiently dried and has gone through the first firing.
