Beautifully Broken: Kintsugi Golden Joinery with Leigh Ferello
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the cracks with a golden bond. This practice emphasizes beauty in imperfection, celebrating history and uniqueness rather than hiding flaws.
While traditional Kintsugi uses lacquer and gold powder, we’ll be using modern materials to ensure a comfortable and accessible experience. For this reason, your finished piece is intended for decorative use only (not food/water/heat safe). Each piece becomes a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Materials may stain, so please “dress for mess”.
Please bring a box to transport the 6×6 stoneware bowl (provided, styles vary) home.

Picture Frame with Barbara Schultz
A fun glass workshop for beginners and experienced alike! Come make your very own mosaic photo frame. You will design your own photo frame, cut and nip the art glass of your choosing, and glue the glass pieces in place on the top and sides of your project. Pattern ideas will be available for you to follow, but it is quite a fun and carefree project. This mirror will not come home with you at the end of this workshop, it will be grouted and returned as a completed project you must pick up at a later predetermined time.
