Mishima Mugs

Welcome to Old School Farm Pottery! In this class, you will be working with one of our ceramic artists to decorate your own Mishima mug perfect for the cozy fall season! Mishima is a surface design technique of drawing into clay and inlaying colored slips and underglazes. It’s a very simple and clean way to decorate greenware pottery. Stencils and templates will be provided, but participants are welcome to draw their own designs and patterns.

Mugs made in this class are clear glazed.

Prebuilt mug, tools, and a drink are included in the price for the class.

Policies

Working with clay takes a lot of practice, and is really dirty. Even though we have aprons in house for you to use, we recommend you wear some clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. 2-4 weeks after getting your hands dirty, your brand new artwork will be finished! Through October, we'll ship your piece to you, but due to shipping difficulties, we will be switching back to a pick up policy.

Class is limited to 14 slots and is open to anyone 16 years old or older. Get your spot quick! Class Minimum of 3 people.
