About the event
Beat the January blues with this beginner friendly hand-built ceramics session, inspired by your personal symbols and motifs
Join artist Natalie Charles for an evening of creative play inspired by your personal symbols at Bàrd Books!
A totem is a sacred object that represents a group of people or acts as a spiritual/ancestral emblem. In this workshop, you’ll be encouraged to think of memories, motifs and moments that make you feel safe or loved. You'll be guided through how to replicate these as palm-sized versions that you can carry with you.
We'll be using airdry clay and you’ll be able to take your creations home with you at the end of the session. There will be examples and references available if you need extra inspiration! The session is beginner friendly with no experience needed.
