Two-Day Porcelain Throwing Workshop with Chris Keenan

Join acclaimed ceramicist Chris Keenan for an immersive two-day workshop focused on throwing with porcelain. Known for his refined and functional forms, Chris brings a wealth of experience and a deep sensitivity to material.
Chris began working with clay in his mid-thirties during a two-year apprenticeship with Edmund de Waal. His work spans elegant beakers, bowls, cups, teapots, jugs, and vessels for flowers. He has also been an Artist-in-Residence at the Mashiko Museum of Ceramic Art in Japan, where he explored local clays and glazes, and was invited to fire work in the kilns of Tomoo Hamada. Chris is represented by galleries internationally.
What to bring :
– Suitable clothing for working with clay.
