We’re excited to tell you about some changes we’ve made to our website to make your experience searching for classes and registering much easier. We’ve added tabs to help narrow down your selection whether it’s browsing by a specific class or day of the week. With over 125 classes and numerous workshops offered, our Early Winter programming has something for everyone. From family activities to our wildly popular blown glass ornament workshops, we have the class for you.
Let There Be Light, our 39th annual Holiday Show & Sale, runs November 21 - January 4, 2015 with a “kick off” reception on Friday, November 21 from 6-10pm. This festive time at Lillstreet features an exhibition, jewelry trunk shows every weekend and a large selection of artisan gifts in our gallery shop. In addition, we’re proud to host our 3rd annual Holiday Art Fair November 21 & 22 featuring 60 artists selling ceramics, jewelry, hats & scarves, prints & notecards and much more.
We look forward to you joining us this season whether it’s to take a class, shop in our gallery or grab coffee and pie from the café. Come see why we’re almost 40 years strong and still growing.

CERAMICS
MULTI LEVEL / INTERMEDIATE / ADVANCED
THE LOW FIRE HANDBUILT SURFACE (5 WEEKS)
Use handbuilding techniques to make functional work that tells a story. Learn new surface techniques such as mishima, sgraffito, monoprinting and transfers. Explore the pot’s ability to transcend function and become a canvas for your ideas. Work with low fire terra cotta and terra sigillata.

Monday 10am-1pmMolly BishopStarts November 17

HANDBUILT STILL LIFE (5 WEEKS)
How objects or forms exist together is as important as how each was individually crafted. Creating a scenario or scene with multiples can give each object its own personality. We will examine how ceramic forms interact with one another and create our own still lifes. Our focus is the play on shape and form rather than function.
Monday 2-5pmJoe KraftStarts November 17

THE BOTTLE FORM (5 WEEKS)
The bottle form captures the eye and the imagination. It can be masculine or feminine in nature, functional or decorative and can appear to float or stand firm. The challenge in making the bottle form is to gain height, finesse proportion and create a beautiful silhouette. This class will push your throwing skills and train your eye on every detail, instilling technique that will carry over to any other wheel-thrown form.

SCULPTURAL NARRATIVES IN CLAY (3 WEEKS)
A narrative is open to expressing oneself through a story or an event. This class will help you be able to reflect yourself or elements you observe in your life and begin to incorporate it in your clay sculpture. By gathering your observations through writing, translate your artist’s journal to create your vision of how you see yourself and your world. As a narrative artist, I will break down my process and show successful examples that different forms narratives can take. All levels are welcome. Technical skills will not be a factor in class.
