Our favorite potter, Debra Zimmerman of Groovy Girl Pottery is back. She’ll be joined by her husband Dale to guide you through the steps to make a delightful angel ideal for your Christmas tree, to be given as a gift, or as a year-round decoration for your home. After creating your ornament, it will be kiln-fired and returned to you with an oxide wash, giving your angel a unique and organic finish. Upon completion (two weeks), you have the option to pick up your angel or have it shipped (for a fee). No previous experience with clay is required. Join us for this very special event!
