Slab & Flame: A Clay + Glass Experience
Presented by LoLo Studios, a.k.a. sister studios Loretta Studios & Glass and LOAM Clay Studio, both located at 131 Loretta Avenue North in Ottawa, ON.
Welcome the shift in seasons with this one-of-a-kind, hands-on collaboration between Loretta Studios and Gallery and LOAM Clay Studio. In this full-day workshop, you’ll create two beautiful, complementary pieces that celebrate the transition from summer’s wild abundance to the cozy, curated comforts of fall.
Start the day at Loretta Studios & Glass, where you’ll learn the delicate art of torch-working with borosilicate glass to craft a set of dainty, everlasting flowers. Using a flame, gravity and some basic tools you’ll transform rods of glass into blooms that won’t wilt with the season — perfect for brightening your planter as your houseplants head back indoors.
Then, slide on over to LOAM Clay Studio (literally: we’re connected by a sliding barn door!) to hand-build your own planter using modern slab construction techniques. We’ll provide simple, clean templates to guide your form — whether you prefer a crisp, minimal look or a wonkier, more organic aesthetic. Explore textural stamps, word impressions, and optional sculptural add-ons to personalize your piece and make it uniquely yours.
Give your creative curiosity a workout with an immersive day in our studios, exploring both low- & hi-tech methods of making by hand! All materials, firings, and instruction included. No prior experience in clay or glass necessary.
Workshop details: Finished pieces will be ready for pickup approximately 3 weeks after the workshop date. Space is limited to 6 participants.
All materials included.
