Paint on Handmade Stoneware // ceramic fundraiser
Refund policy
Refunds up to 7 days before event
Description
Using a blue & white technique typical of Chinese porcelain and Dutch Delftware, come to my studio and decorate Berlin handmade ceramics to support a cause!
I’ve timed this so you can make some presents for yourself or for the holiday season, and enjoy an afternoon of painting. I’m donating my handmade plates and all the ticket sales to Sreyka Smile Association, a non-profit working to end the cycle of extreme poverty for children in Cambodia.
MORE INFO
There are three workshop slots available, all are open to adults, children welcome on the Saturday! Friday evening is adults only.
All of the funds raised from the workshop will go to Sreyka Smile Association, a non-profit working directly with children in Cambodia. Participants will each have a beautiful stoneware handmade plate they can paint on and pick up the week after, once it has been fired.
TIMETABLE
The workshop will unfold as follows:
-
Short intro into ceramics - why blue and white pottery?

Sreyka Smille association - working to end the cycle of extreme poverty in Cambodia
