ArtsConnect’s ArtsCalendar is a work in progress. Presently, we are working with a small group of arts organizations from across the Tri-Cities to develop the ArtsCalendar before we open up submissions from all arts organizations and we are not accepting direct submissions at this time. If your organization is interested in joining the ArtsCalendar in the future, please email your name, address, and a brief description of your organization to: [email protected]
This resource has been made possible through the financial support of ArtsConnect’s members. If you would like to support the further development, please consider becoming a member here: Membership

Sip in Style: Your Handmade Mug

Get ready for a fun, hands-on pottery adventure where you’ll create your very own ceramic mug!
Mugs might look tricky at first, but they’re surprisingly beginner-friendly. Using simple hand-building techniques like pinching and coiling, you’ll shape your mug, add a circular base, and then get playful with all kinds of quirky and creative handle designs. You can even add characters or fun designs with surface decorations!
Instructors will guide you step by step, making it easy and enjoyable. Bring your imagination, experiment with textures and personal touches, and enjoy a relaxed, playful workshop where you’ll take home a unique mug made entirely by you. Due to the kiln-firing process, finished mugs will be ready for pickup approximately 3–4 weeks after the workshop.
About the Instructor
Dasha Berezhnova is a multimedia artist who picked up ceramics in 2020, and never looked back. She loves to bring whimsy to wheel-thrown and hand-build forms by incorporating sculptural elements, cheeky details, and bright colours. She approaches art-making in a lighthearted and experimental way, and enjoys helping students find their unique artistic voice, develop their confidence, and have fun!
