Glaze + Resonance
**Slow down. Get out of your head. Get your hands into the process.**
Join Open Heart Alchemy and Studio C for an evening of creativity, sound, and presence.
As you explore the art of glazing, the sound from crystal singing bowls will fill the space around you. The combination of hands-on creativity and resonant sound invites you to slow your pace, quiet some of the mental noise, and reconnect with the moment you’re in.
There’s no need to make it perfect. Choose your colors, follow your curiosity, and let yourself get lost in the process. As your hands work, allow the sound to create a little more space in your mind — a chance to breathe, settle, and simply be where you are.
Your piece will be fired after the workshop, leaving you with something beautiful you created along with the memory of an evening spent slowing down and tuning in.
**Come glaze. Come listen. Come create.**
No previous glazing or sound experience is needed.

This Studio C instructor-led workshop is great for beginners and all levels of art experience.
You will walk step by step through hand glazing a 6" ceramic tile in the cuerda seca "dry cord" style, where wax outlines create a barrier between glaze colors. You will be able to choose your own color palette. All materials are provided.
The instructor will kiln fire your tile after the workshop. It will be given a cork backing, and it will be available for pickup or shipping in one week after the workshop.
If you want to create more than one tile or choose another design, additional 6" tiles pre-printed with a variety of designs will be available for add-on purchase to glaze at the studio.
This beginner workshop will not cover wax drawing or screen printing. See other workshops for advanced techniques. Please note Carly Quinn is not the instructor for our workshops
*Expect that your tile art may have natural blemishes, pull backs, and pinholes that occur during the kiln firing process; While we will provide guidance in this workshop, it is a beginner level class to experiment with this glazing style, and we cannot guarantee the final quality of your DIY art. No refunds are provided due to imperfections in your fired art.*
