Slip Casting and Mould Making
*
Special Interest Group
This special interest group provides an opportunity for members to meet and share skills and experience with mould-making and slip casting.
We meet on the second Saturday of each month at 1:30pm at the Karlup Studio. The sessions range from making basic plaster moulds from thrown or found objects, to more complex moulds, selecting and pouring slip, using coloured slips, and generally having a good time.
Note that the group is intended for those who are already working with slip casting. All members are welcome to come and share their experience.
Contact Peggy Stacy pstacy575@gmail.com for more information.
