One Day Clay Workshop: Drinkware! Mugs, Tumblers, or Cups

$10

with Emily Malpass

Calendar Sep 3, 2025 at 11 am, runs for 1 week

Instructor: Emily Malpass

When: Wednesday, September 3

Where: TJF

Time: 11 am - 1 pm

This one-time workshop will provide you with the materials and techniques needed to create a mug, tumbler, or cup for your morning coffee/tea or favorite beverage, or to give as a special gift to someone you love. We will roll our own slabs of clay, incorporate textures on their surfaces, and shape the form by hand to hand-build your choice of drinkware. 

Please Note: All classes and workshops are for Military Connected Individuals who are 18 years or older.

PLEASE NOTE: your piece will not be finished/take-home ready on the day of class--it must dry and then be kiln-fired and glazed off-site. You'll choose from a selection of food-safe glazes, and our friends at Klaystation in Raleigh will fire and glaze your piece--you'll be contacted to come pick up your completed mug from TJF within one month of class. 

No experience is needed and all levels and abilities are welcome! Please wear clothes you don't mind getting a little dirty, and please let us know if you need any accommodations (standing workspace, additional lighting, etc.).

We offer scholarships for those who cannot afford the registration fee. Email the Operation ART Program Manager at isabella@thejoelfund.org to receive the scholarship promo code with your name and email address.
