This popular workshop was developed by one of our members, Helen Ung, and we gratefully continue to teach it in the spirit and creativity that Helen brought to it. Helen is a ceramicist in San Francisco. She picked it up as a hobby during the pandemic 4 years ago and has stuck with it since then. She loves making functional pieces and infusing their magic in every day life. To learn more about Helen and her art, follow her on Instagram: @helenspots.
