Join us at Friends & Faire and learn how to make your own ceramic dishes with Selwyn Ceramics! This is the first in the series of make-your-own tableware workshops that is a 2-part class. In the first class, you will make 2 plates: a side-size and a dinner-size plate. In the second class, you will glaze your pieces. Because the plates need a little more time to dry to help prevent cracking, there will be 2 weeks between the first and second classes.    The tableware pictured is just a sample by ayn_ceramics and each person will design their own plates. Check out "handmade ceramic plates" on Pinterest and Instagram for some inspiration.

Instructor bio: Getting messy and playing with mud has always been part of Jennifer Selwyn's DNA, and at age 5 she knew she wanted to be an artist. It was not a surprise to anyone that Jen went to college to be an artist-teacher, and college is where she first fell in love with clay. Years later, Jennifer was reintroduced to pottery, and about 17 years ago she started selling her work at shows and galleries. Selwyn's work is inspired by her surroundings and she likes to say "Inspired by Nature, handmade with Aloha".  Jennifer still loves teaching and meeting new people, so she is excited to team up with F&F to do some fun workshops.

All materials are included and the class will be held at Friends & Faire at 1980 Main st. #4 Wailuku, HI 96793 (Behind Native Intelligence- free parking available).  BYO beer or wine to sip on and enjoy while you get creative! (21 and over).  Ages 10 and up are welcome to register.
