Over two unforgettable sessions, you'll hand-build a ceramic canoe and then paint it with fire — leaving with a double-sided functional art piece that works as a planter, a key dish, a trinket bowl, or a showstopper on any surface. Day on one side. Night on the other. Ancient artforms, one extraordinary result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mb-3 text-base leading-[27px] text-neutral-900 last:mb-0\"\u003eThis is the workshop people will still be talking about years from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mb-3 text-base leading-[27px] text-neutral-900 last:mb-0\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"font-medium\"\u003ePart 1 — Clay with Cheryl Caswell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e(\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.clayfulpotters.com\/\"\u003eClayful Potter Studio\u003c\/a\u003e) \u003c\/em\u003eUsing ancient slab and coil techniques, you'll build your canoe by hand, no wheel, no experience needed.
