Who’s ready to get their hands dirty in some good ‘ol fun?! Check out Manjar Ceramics’ demonstrative glazing workshop on Saturday, June 30, at Sol Collective, a 3,200 square-foot community-based arts organization. You’ll get the chance to paint your own cup under the guidance of Manjar Ceramics’ owners and artists Alejandra Calderón and Luis Magaña. Manjar (which translates to “nectar” in English) Ceramics was named by the partners after the joyful intersection between their Mexican roots and passion for pottery. The two will share their decorative techniques and glazes with attendees, including how to create their signature square striped mugs. Calederón and Magaña will also demonstrate and guide you through a four-step ceramic curation process, including painting a square mug made from white stoneware. Your personalized mug will be fired at Manjar Ceramics’ studio, where afterwards you can pick it up at Sol Collective to take home or gift to a friend. Some scholarships for the event are available. Please contact Luis@solcollective.org for more information. Tickets are $30 and can be obtained online at Eventbrite.com (just search for “Glazing Workshop by Manjar Ceramics”). The event will take place from 11 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Sol Collective is located at 2574 21st St.
