Let's Explore Mugs! This everyday piece of pottery is something we all use everyday. In this workshop, we will consider mugs, cups, and tumblers from the perspective of the form, function and aesthetic. We will reflect on a wide range of artists who have made Mugs a central theme in their artistic work, and discuss the characteristics of their forms, and consider their methods of making.

Through a mixture of hand building and wheel techniques, students will develop their visual interest and voice. As we look for renewed inspiration, we will tackle the basic functional attributes of the mug – practical size, handle shapes and technique, as well as food safe glazing.
