Matcha Bowl Workshop - March 22

Course Description

Making things with clay and sipping a delicious matcha are two of our favorite things!  We are very excited to offer our new make-your-own matcha bowl and matcha tasting workshop,  in celebration of our Isshiki Yuki matcha launch! In this 2.5-hour workshop, you’ll learn the basics of ceramic handbuilding while creating your very own matcha bowl!  Our amazing teacher and ceramic artist, Anjuli Wright, will guide the class through a bowl-making demonstration and provide hands-on support as you work on your piece. This matcha bowl workshop is for adults of any level. no prior pottery experience needed! Midway through the workshop, while our clay rests and firms up before the next step, we’ll take a little matcha break and enjoy a tasting together. You’ll get to try a few different matcha drinks, all made with isshiki Yuki matcha! This is a one-time class, so glazing will not be covered. However, you’ll have the opportunity to paint designs on your bowl with a selection of colored underglazes. We will then slow dry, clear glaze, and fire your work in our kiln and have it ready for you to come pick up. All materials are included, along with the glazing and firing of one piece per student. As a beginner class, the experience will be focused on learning some basic handbuilding techniques. Not every ceramic piece comes out of the kiln exactly how we imagine - but the process and the imperfections are what make your work unique. There’s something extra special about whisking matcha in a bowl you made yourself, and we think it might even taste that tiny bit better <3
