Vase Days
Create your own hand built ceramic Amphora Vase with Heather Shevlin of Dune Brooklyn.
Channel the bacchanalia spirit this summer. Eat fruit! Drink sweet nectar! Pick flowers! Lay in the sun! Ground yourself through the ancient art of handmade ceramics. A lasting form—amphora vases come in many shapes and sizes, and historically held wine, oil, or grain in ancient Greco-Roman times. Our vases will be formed through a variety of methods, using our hands, a select few tools, and a day-dream design.

****Disclaimer: Creating and firing pottery is a tricky business, and sometimes pieces do not make it through perfectly. You will be guided with properly prepared clay and instructions on how to ensure the best possible outcome for your piece, however final pieces may endure damage due to the extreme conditions needed to fire a piece to vitrification. The process is temperamental, so please temper your expectations.
