"To Practice Any Art No Matter How Well or Badly Is a Way to Make Your Soul Grow. So Do It." - Kurt Vonnegut
The class is hosted by Maria, who has over 30 years experience! The class beings with a historical review from ancient times to the present day. Using the pottery technique, pinching, you will create a beautiful object like a mug or a bowl. Then decorate it with special ceramic colours. You can even try pottery throwing on the potter’s wheel! “To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country.
We will meet at the sculpture "The Gate of Aegina" by Costas Varotsos, located at the port.
