Dssolvr Oct 6 Pints and Pottery: Ghost Luminaries
Date: Monday, October 6, 2025, 6pm - 8:30pm
Location:Durham Dssolvr Brewery, 630 Rigsbee Ave, Durham, NC 27701.
Enjoy a brew while you design and sculpt ghost luminaries! You will be provided with cream-white clay from which you can make two ghost figures that will sit over led tea lights to make a sweet Halloween luminary. We will do basic hand building, cut holes for the light to shine through, and you can decorate the pieces by carving or with stamps if you choose.
At the end of class, I will take your artwork to my studio to be fired, glazed, and fired again. You will have the choice between a sky blue, jade green, cobalt blue, yellow, pink or clear glaze (pictured here).
The final product will include a tea light!
They will be available for pick-up at Dssolvr Brewery in Durham once they are finished.
***Very important*** Pottery is a bit of science and a lot of physics, and random things happen in the creation process. I will try my absolute best to care for your creation from start to finish, but strange things do happen as pots dry, such as cracking and warping. I will explain how you can likely prevent them while we are sculpting, but I’m always surprised by what clay will do. By signing up for this class, you accept the fate of the kiln gods, and there are no refunds or replacements for projects that do not survive the process.
FAQ:
Q: Do I need to know how to work with clay to take this class?
A: No - you do not need to have any knowledge about working with clay to make luminaries using this method!
Q: What do I need to bring?
A: Dress in clothes you don’t mind getting a little dirty. I will provide everything needed to make your ghost. Grab a friend and bring them too!
Q: How long is the class?
A: The instruction portion of the class will last about 30 minutes. Then you will have 2 hours to explore and finish your luminaries, and I will be there to assist. Please plan to end on time.
