Bring a touch of handmade charm to your yard or garden with a ceramic birdhouse crafted by you! In this beginner-friendly workshop, participants will learn slab-building techniques to construct a functional and decorative birdhouse for their feathered visitors.

You'll begin by decorating flat slabs of clay with stamps, textures, and natural materials to create unique surface designs. Then, using simple handbuilding techniques, you'll cut, shape, and assemble the pieces into a one-of-a-kind birdhouse complete with hanging holes for outdoor display.

All tools and materials are provided. Finished birdhouses will be fired and ready for pickup at a later date.
