Pottery workshops, in both hand throwing and special
firing techniques are offered at Blue Moon Clay Studios in Greenwich,
NY. Brenda McMahon teaches classes both at her studio and at art centers
across the country.
In 2008, Brenda is teaching several workshops on her signature Saggar
Fired Porcelain. The workshops are hands-on and will offer students
an opportunity to learn the philosophy and technique of saggar firing,
as well as give them an opportunity to fire their own pots in the
saggar kiln.
