Join us on Saturday, March 31st for a hands-on flask-making class with NCPC Artist-in-Residence Jared Ziegenbein!

Jared will lead participants in creating a flask and cap from slabs of clay. After drying, the flask will be glazed in a color of your choice. Handbuilding is a fun and immediate way of learning to create pottery–no previous experience necessary!

Cost for this workshop is $35 for NCPC members; $40 for non-members. Cost includes all instructions, materials, and firings.

About Jared Ziegenbein

Jared graduated in 2016 from Valdosta State University, with a BFA in Art with an emphasis in ceramics. His previous ceramic experience includes serving as production manager at Little River Studio in Hahira, GA and as a Valdosta State University ceramic studio assistant.

Jared explains, “As an artist and functional potter I create utilitarian forms with a clean and simple aesthetic, utilizing the surfaces of the work to reflect an appreciation of Asian culture, ceramic tradition, and natural pattern. Throughout the process of exploring modest forms and motifs, I apply my knowledge of engineering to create works that interact in complex constructions, which appear effortless and intuitive. I place great value on the usability of my work, therefore I design pieces that fit my aesthetic sensibilities and are a pleasure to use.”
