Communal Clay
Candle Holder Workshop
Using clay we will introduce you to the coiling technique frequently used in hand building sculptures and tableware.
We will be looking at reference images of unusual and abstract ceramic candle holders from around the world.
You will be able to add colour and depth to your work with wild clay slips we have collected from around South London.
The session will last 2 hours.
Theses workshops will be more focused on the tactility of playing, practicing and learning sculpture techniques.
At the end of the workshop if you wish to have your piece fired and glazed, we ask you pay an additional £10 to cover firing costs, glaze materials & transport of your work. **
Any leftover clay at the end of the session will be recycled for future use, minimising wastage and keeping our workshops sustainable.
In reference to The Green Bottle Scale, A tool for economic justice.
We have made our own sliding scale that's more current and relevant to Londoners living situation.
We have created this to help people with what tickets to purchase as we try to make our workshops as accessible as possible, whilst also ensuring workshop facilitators and collaborators are fairly paid and we can continue to do this.
**At the end of the session, if you want to have your work fired and glazed there will be an option to pay an additional fee of £10.
All fired and glazed work will be read to collect before Christmas from SET Social.
We want to make ceramics affordable and accessible to more people therefore any profits made will be used to run more community clay workshops in the future.
PLEASE READ: Clay and ceramics are fragile materials until fired and glazed, on occasion things can break or become damaged during the drying and firing process', Communal Clay is not responsible for any damage that may occur during these.
