Presentation on Ceramic Workshops in Italy - Outdoor Studio activities

10/20/2021

0 Comments

 
Our October 12, 2021 online General Meeting featured CAC member Ellie Lannen’s presentation & slideshow about her experience taking pottery workshops at La Meridiana International School of Ceramics in Tuscany. In case you missed it, a video recording is available for our members to view on YouTube. (Note: it runs about 23 minutes.) Here's the LINK: https://youtu.be/b8nuBui_NDM

​
Below are photos of CAC folks making things together in our beautiful Outdoor Studio - some of us have been meeting to do that every week since July. In fact these Clay Play Dates have been so popular that we’ve decided to continue with them until we can re-open the studio! They are every ​Sunday afternoon from 1:30 to about 4:30 pm. People can use clay to make anything they like, including beads, little bowls, sculptures, mini totem pieces, etc. You can also work on your own bisqued pieces by painting them with underglaze and/or glazing for raku firing. 
We generally plan to be in the Outdoor Studio (which has been very nice lately). However Multi Purpose Room # 3 has been reserved for us every Sunday afternoon, in case the weather or the air quality are really bad, so we can always work in there if necessary (of course everyone must wear a mask indoors).  

And below are some photos of people working inside that room, when we were having some really hot weather in the summer. Included are images from a mini-workshop on making small totem poles with ceramic pieces, which was a lot of fun.

Patio Party on June 18, 2021 - Aloha!

6/30/2021

0 Comments

 
We had a wonderful Patio Party with a Hawaiian theme, organized by Linda Mariano and  Mary Ann Stanley with the help of numerous other hard-working and enthusiastic volunteers. Kathy Jepson did a great job with the refreshments - lots of appetizers, finger-food, and desserts, plus wine, lemonade and sparkling water. Judy Russell was in charge of entertainment, including a Hawaiian themed Jeopardy game as well as music and dance courtesy of  Rossmoor's Hawaii Club and the Ukulele Club. Quite a lot of our members even got up to learn a couple of hula dances, which was a lot of fun! 

It was marvelous to celebrate with our members and their guests, after such a difficult time with the pandemic shut-down. Especially as we were about to have the studio shut down again to be remodeled. As you can see, everyone really enjoyed being together in person at last!

​Below are some photos of the festive event taken by various CAC folks who were there. 
You can also see a slideshow on YouTube that includes several video clips from the party. This is meant for our members only - it's not available to the general public. (Note: it runs about 7 minutes.) To watch it, click on this LINK: https://youtu.be/WCgH6MZ7oSc
