Join us at Scandinavia House for a beginner-friendly adult art workshop! Inspired by the work of Scandinavian artists like Eva Hild and late ceramicist Ragnar Kjartansson (1923-89), participants will create an abstract clay sculpture imbued with natural and organic forms. Guided by teaching artist Korka, participants will create art in a relaxed atmosphere. All materials are provided.
Participants who have respiratory issues are encouraged to wear masks. Participation is limited to 12 attendees; please register in advance to guarantee attendance.
