Richard Spiller, local potter, will present a Sgraffito tile workshop on August 19, 2023 from noon to 3 pm at the Winona Arts Center, 228 East 5th Street.

Sgraffito (in Italian, meaning “to scratch”) is a technique produced by applying a drawing to a hard red clay pottery piece and then scratching off parts of the layer to create contrasting images and patterns to reveal the clay color underneath. The tile is 8″ square and a simple design works best for this project. Students can bring their own drawings or use those provided. The tiles will be fired at Spiller’s studio and returned to participants at a later date.

Cost is $30 for members of WAC and $35 for non-members. If you have not had a chance to experience a class with Richard, you won’t want to miss to miss this opportunity! To register, contact Jen Benson at jsbenson50@gmail.com.
