SUMMARY:Sculpt & Giggle: Make Your Playful Clay Pal!
DESCRIPTION:Bring your imagination to life in this playful\, hands-on clay workshop! \nUsing simple hand-building techniques like pinching and coiling\, you’ll craft your very own quirky monsters\, fantastical creatures\, or whimsical characters. Go wild with exaggerated features\, silly expressions\, and unexpected details—or even use molds and playful tools to add extra personality. These little clay companions can be functional\, like a cute planter or a tiny dish\, or purely decorative—perfect for adding charm and laughter to any shelf or desk. Instructors will guide you step by step\, making it easy to let your creativity run free. \nCome ready to experiment\, giggle\, and get a little messy while making a one-of-a-kind creature that’s full of character\, imagination\, and fun!Due to the kiln-firing process\, finished mugs will be ready for pickup approximately 3–4 weeks after the workshop. \nAbout the Instructor\nRylan Cocks is an artist and art educator holding Bachelor’s of Fine Arts from Emily Carr University of Art and Design. Approaching his work with maximalist sensibilities such as over-patterning\, glimmers of gold and silver\, animal prints\, and the introduction of other mediums such as textiles and rhinestones\, Rylan’s practice brings forward a question of taste. This question of taste is not asking what makes good or bad art\, but inevitably how we should all forge our own creative sensibilities. Rylan has worked in an arts education capacity for over 4 years and hopes to encourage self-expression\, nurture imagination\, and help bring student’s work into fruition.

SUMMARY:DRAWING IN THE GALLERY
DESCRIPTION:DRAWING IN THE GALLERY\nKAREN ZALAMEA: EVERY SURFACE IS A SHRINE  \nYou are invited to draw in the gallery during this monthly Sunday session.
