In the workshop, we will collaboratively create a clay vessel and personalise it. The focus will be on using symbols and colours that remind you of your own roots. We aim to establish a connection between art and history. This course is suitable for beginners as well as advanced participants. Everyone is welcome to express their personal story through the medium of clay.
