GOLD COIN DONATION
Slow down, get creative, and connect with the natural beauty of Minjerribah in this hands-on clay workshop with island potters.
Discover the meditative art of repetitive pattern-making as you use hand-made stamps and simple texturing techniques to create beautiful clay wildlife or flora inspired by the island. Through the rhythmic process of stamping and layering patterns, you’ll transform a simple piece of clay into a tactile artwork rich in texture and character.
