Meet us at on Nov. 19 (6-9 pm) at Make Space to create ceramic objects that will be clear glazed and fired to be used in an informal Japanese Tea Ceremony, which will be held on Nov. 25 (6-9 pm) at CEAM. The artist will host this informal and intimate evening of sharing tea, conversation, and experiencing your own handmade objects in use.
The second session is open to all, even if you were unable to make the first workshop
This is a free workshop, and all supplies and equipment are included, but you must RSVP as space is limited.
The CEAM Artist Residency is supported through generous grants from the Dr. JoAnn Crisp-Ellert Fund at The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, and the St. Johns County Tourist Development Council administered through the St. Johns Cultural Council. Additional support is provided by Volkswagen of St. Augustine, VyStar Credit Union, and AC Hotel St. Augustine.
The CEAM Artist Residency, in collaboration with Flagler College’s Department of Visual Arts, is a regular program of artists-in-residence to engage in themes of place-making while collaborating with some aspect of St. Augustine’s local community, the city’s significant and varied roles in American history, or its rich natural environment. A goal of the residency is to foster diverse perspectives on these aspects of our local community, and artists and scholars in a range of fields are invited to integrate and collaborate between the areas of fine art and broader fields of inquiry, such as curatorial practice, performing arts, and creative writing.
