J im and Brenda Atchinson own LickinFlames, an incredible pottery business in Nevada City. You can see some of their beautiful work here www.lickinflames.com. Jim has been creating things made from clay since 1973.
As part of our Nevada County Fiber Arts Trunk Show happening on Saturday, October 22nd, we are excited to announce that Jim will be giving 2 workshops. In these workshops, you will be making your own pinch pots. You will learn about clays, the culture of clay, and the humanity of clay. He will demonstrate the process of making the pot and then you will get to make your own. You will get dirty in the process so dress appropriately. Jim will also assist in helping you get cleaned up. He will take your piece back to Nevada City to fire it. We will then have them transported back to the nursery for you to pick up.
The workshops are limited to 10 people each, and there will be 2 workshops: one at 11:00 am and the other at 1:00 pm. There is a $20 fee ($45 value). If you would like to participate, please email Events@berkeleyhort.com and let us know which workshop you would like to attend. We will call you to confirm and collect payment information.
Come join us to make your own piece of beautiful art.
