Are you a lifelong learner or a curious teen looking to dive into the colorful world of ceramics? The McNay Art Museum offers an exciting opportunity on September 7 and 14, 2025, with their sold-out Two-Day Ceramic Workshop: Pottery Forms & Firing.

Day One: Discovering the Art of Ceramics
On the first day, attendees will gather at the McNay Art Museum, where they'll embark on a unique journey exploring O’ Powa O’ Meng: The Art and Legacy of Jody Folwell. Participants will then jump right into crafting their first pottery piece using pinch and coil techniques. This engaging approach welcomes both beginners and seasoned artists to express themselves in a nurturing environment.
Experience Firing Traditions on Day Two
On the second day, the excitement continues at the UTSA Southwest Campus. Here, participants will watch their crafted pieces transform into tangible art through primitive firing methods. It’s an exhilarating moment as one leaves the workshop not just with a finished piece of art, but also with newfound skills and techniques that can spark further exploration in pottery and ceramics.
