Winter Wheel Throwing Learning Residency
Available spots
21 DAYS / 1 MEAL PER DAY / ACCOMMODATION ALL INCLUDED* Dates: November 19 - December 10, 2024 Wheel throwing residents will each have an assigned station inside Toroo studio, with access to unlimited clay for practice, a wheel and all necessary tools, equipment and materials for making. Each day will consist of instruction at various points throughout the morning and afternoon, with time allowed during the rest of the day for independent practice to consolidate techniques. Teaching will be provided every day, with the exception of the second Sunday (December 1st) when the studio will be closed to allow residents to rest and explore the village. During the first residency we learnt the value of mandating rest to help residents stay healthy and ensure sustainable practice. Each resident will be provided accommodation in Ye's Park within walking distance of the studio. The village in which the studio is located is full of ceramic artists and their studios. *Please note: - Check in between 3pm - 5pm on November 19 (plan to arrive at Ye's Park at this time). We will have dinner together following residents’ arrival. - Toroo Studio's comfortable and fitted kitchen will be at your disposal during the Residency, you can shop for groceries at the local supermarket and prepare your breakfast and dinner, or eat out in the village at your own convenience. We will go grocery shopping to a larger market following residents’ arrival and the studio will serve dinner twice a week. We will provide coffee, tea and desserts, as well as seasoning for cooking, eggs, some fruit, biscuits (cookies), drinks etc. - Instruction will start on November 20th. Instruction begins each day around 9:30am, giving residents opportunities for one-on-one or small group learning, to be then complemented by residents’ autonomous practice. Lunch will be provided around 1pm. You will have your own working space, unlimited clay for practice, wheel and a set of tools. Clean-up each day will be at 5:30pm. - We will cater the residency slightly differently for each resident's profile, depending on your experience level and practice style. Beginners are welcome, however experience in ceramics will allow most residents to take full advantage of the independent nature of the residency experience. Please indicate any dietary restrictions during the registration process. We look forward to welcoming you!
