Creative Activities

During the course the participants will be introduced to the entire production process of the Deruta ceramics: all the processing phases, from the manipulation to the lathe to the obtaining of the finished object passing through the various cooking required. Our proposal focuses on the following phases of greater artistic value:

Manipulation of clay – Shaping at the lathe

At our educational workshop, with the support of our Ceramists and Masters and Support staff, you can model the clay with your own hands and realize traditional objects: jars, bowls, little bowls ... It will also be possible to deepen the technical aspects of artistic modeling by testing the finish of the modeled object and the application of handles and feet on the artefacts thanks to the fresh clay.

Ceramic decoration

You will be able to experiment with the basic techniques of artistic decoration, realizing the own object ... unique and unrepeatable, reproducing the typical Deruta decorations or maybe creating a specific theme object using brushes, colors and imagination!
