Ceramic modeling workshop in Riquewihr (68)

Activity description :

1. 2 hours
2. Up to 6 people
3. From 12 years old

An enchanted interlude to shape your little treasures. Let poetry take over your hands for an afternoon in Riquewihr. This 2-hour workshop is an invitation to slow down and discover the tactile pleasure of modeling.

Course of the workshop (2h) :

• Encountering the material: I'll accompany you step by step to tame the clay and shape your pieces with gentleness and simplicity.
• Touches of color: You'll have the freedom to personalize your creations by playing with engobes (ceramic colors), to give your objects a dress that reflects you.
• The workshop ritual : Because craftsmanship is all about attention to detail, we dedicate the last few minutes to cleaning and caring for our shared creative space.

A sensory and playful experience to create your own unique pieces!

Once the pieces have been shaped, the craftsman takes over. They dry before a first firing at 980°C, then receive a transparent glaze for brilliance and strength, followed by a second firing at 1250°C. The creations are then available in the workshop about a month later, once they have come out of the kiln.
