Pug Mill Class (Experimental)

Time: Aug 09 06:00 PM - 07:00 PM
Host: Russell Owens
Ages: 16 and up

Come learn with me as we embark on making moist clay from commercial bagged dry clay.
We will be mixing up dry clay with silica sand to make B-mix with added strength from the sand suitable for making larger pieces.
Each participant should (this is my first time trying this) end up with 10 pounds of clay.

Health advisory: We will be working with significant sources of silica dust and chronic exposure is harmful! basic masks will be provided. Bring your own N95 or respirator if you would like to.
Also the room the pug mill is in is regularly above 90 degrees so plan accordingly. We will try to get sweaty part done in 10 to 20 min then step into the AC while it mixes.

Ages : 16 & up
