Primitive Pottery Workshop at Kelly Place
Prehistoric humans learned to turn mud and water
into beautiful ceramic vessels. You can have this same experience
at Kelly Place, guided by a reknowned artist in primitive
pottery.
Learn about the different types of pottery created at different
cultural periods by the Ancestral Puebloans who inhabited the
southwest centuries ago as you create your own "primitive"
vessel. Make your own paintbrush, just as the Puebloans did.
Finally, the firing of the dried pieces can also be done in the
primitive way, in an outdoor firepit.
In a one day course, you can accomplish everything except the
firing. You may leave with your own unfired piece or choose to
have it fired in an outdoor pit (fire restrictions may
apply).
The cost of a full day lesson in primitive ceramics for up to
four individuals is $325, materials included. For each additional
person, add $60. Firing your pieces in an outdoor pit is an
additional $250 for the group and requires at least another day
to complete the process. All pottery workshops must be arranged
in advance. Arrangements depend on the availability of the
artist/teacher.
