Celebrate another cozy winter with creativity! Make unique white clay houses with local artist Elaine Bremer. Be inspired as Elaine walks you through pottery hand building techniques to make a small house or two. Use your imagination to shape, style, add texture, and decoration to your design. Bring your house home, nestle a tea light inside and enjoy the warm glow it adds to your space! If time permits, use your extra clay bits to make small decorative stars & snowflakes!

*All clay creations will be bisque fired by Elaine within 2 weeks following the workshop. We will notify you when your pieces are ready for pickup at the MacLaren to bring home or gift to a friend!

*All children ages 10-16 years must be registered with an adult.

Description

Elaine Bremer is a graduate of the 3 year adult art program at Central Technical School in Toronto which, in early years, was where some of the Group of Seven taught. She is currently based in Orillia and has exhibited in the Women’s Show at OMAH since moving there 8 years ago.

She has always been creative in a wide range of mediums, from fabric and mixed media to welding metal sculptures and work in clay, leading workshops in Raku and sculpture. A prairie girl of Mennonite background, her focus in her art is influenced by her farm origins. She is currently working on establishing a community Makerspace to serve the Orillia area.
