Ceramic Bouquets with Amy Smoot 2025

Get Ready for May Flowers at Kentuck Art Center! Students will learn how to pinch and form clay flowers to create your very own small floral bouquet that never wilts. Students will be able to create 4-5 different flowers and a small vase for them to sit in. Once students finish building their bouquet, they will have the opportunity to finish their flowers with bold glaze colors on the second day. This workshop will be held in Kentuck's Clay Studio on April 26 & 27 from 2-5pm. This workshop is for all ages. Children 16 and under who are registered must be accompanied by an adult. The adult can purchase their own ticket if they wish to participate in the class. There is a minimum of 4 participants and a maximum of 12. If the minimum is not met, participants will be refunded.
