What makes a cup feel just right in your hands?
Design and create your ideal cup or mug in this focused, hands-on weekend workshop. Guided by Vivian Rodriguez, you’ll explore form, proportion, and function while refining your wheel-throwing skills. Learn techniques for creating consistent forms and discover multiple approaches to making and attaching handles to complete a cohesive set.
By the end of the weekend, you’ll have developed the skills to produce a coordinated set of up to four cups or mugs, along with practical tips for trimming, finishing, firing, and glazing functional ware.
