Ceramic Workshops and Advanced Ceramics Training

My workshops are designed as focused learning experiences that bring together material knowledge, making processes, and critical thinking. They are not demonstrations alone, but structured environments where participants actively engage with clay, glaze, and ideas through guided experimentation.
Each workshop is shaped around clear learning objectives, I place strong emphasis on understanding materials, their possibilities, limitations, and behavior so participants can make informed decisions in their own studio practice.
Workshops are suitable for students, emerging practitioners, and experienced ceramists who wish to deepen their technical understanding while strengthening their personal approach to making.
