SUMMARY:Beginner Pottery Wheel Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Jul 18 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm\n\n|Recurring Event (See all)\n\n| $350\n\n\nPresented by: The Incubator Creative Hub\n\n18 July – 22 Aug\nTuesday evenings\n6 – 8pm\nCreative Community Campus\n$350\n\nGet stuck into wheel throwing in The Creative Campus with this six-week series. Learn all the basic clay and wheel techniques and get to know the necessary pottery tools and equipment to perfect the craft!\n\nEach week Sophie will demonstrate different techniques on and off the wheel – from storage and wedging to turning and pulling cups\, bowls\, plates\, handles and spouts! Once participants have a range of pieces they’re happy with\, Sophie will introduce students to the glazing and firing process.\n\nAt the end of the series\, the last week will be a gathering for participants to debrief and exhibit their work to their friends and family!\n\nSpaces are limited\, so get in quick!\n\nSophie Evans\, a past resident artist of the Pot House\, here at the Incubator\, is both a hand sculpting and wheel throwing potter and tutor. You can find her work on display and for sale in the Pot House. She says – ‘I have enjoyed clay for as long as I can remember. I have played around with different mediums\, but nothing has captivated me as much as clay. I went to Whitecliffe Art School\, where I studied for a Diploma in Art and Design. During this time at Whitecliffe\, we explored clay and I expressed how much I would love to work in ceramics. I spent four years working towards my Ceramic Diploma in the Waikato. My style and signature look are very fluid with an organic and naturalistic feel\, which you will see reflected in how I have set up my workspace (the curves in flax\, water\, pods and driftwood you will see come through in the ceramic vessels I make).’\n\nWhen: 18th July to 22nd August 2023\nTime : 6pm – 8pm\nWhere:  The Incubator Creative Hub\nCost: $350 \nBOOK HERE

SUMMARY:Introduction to Bone Carving with Gavin Smith.
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is held over 2 sessions\, on consecutive days.\nDate: 12 & 13 August\nTime: 9.30am – 12.30pm\nCost: $85\nMy name is Gavin Smith I began my journey Bone Carving 17 years ago. Bone Carving has changed the way I see the world\, it has influenced how I raised my 3 children\, and engaged with at risk youth and whanau in the Tauranga Moana as a social worker. I believe that whakairo is about story\, the role of the bone carver is to create a snapshot in time. This course is an interpretation of the value I place on the story within the carving of bone.
