This is a four-part workshop series led by Aisha Harrison. Participants will respond to the work on view in the exhibition, tomakesenseofitall, by conceptualizing and creating a small sculpture which will be fired.

By registering, you are committing to attending all four sessions as this will be a set cohort. There is limited capacity for these workshops.

 Please look at the schedule below before registering

Session 1: July 9th, 2025: 10:30am-12pm 

During the first workshop, we will gather in the gallery to look at the artwork and consider which work(s) to respond to. Participants will have an opportunity to do guided writing and then make small clay sketches (maquettes) to flesh out their ideas.

Session 2: July 11th, 5:30-7pm  

Participants will consider their maquettes and choose a direction for their sculpture. Aisha will talk about solid building and participants will start constructing their pieces using the solid building method and low-tech armature solutions (where necessary).

Session 3: July 23rd, 10:30am-12pm

Participants will put the finishing touches on their sculptures. Aisha will demonstrate how to hollow, and folks can begin the hollowing procedure 

Session 4: July 25th, 5:00pm-6:30pm 

Participants will finish hollowing and reflect on the process. The pieces will be fired at TAM and participants will be invited to pick up their pieces when they are ready.
