Transferware is a historic method used since the 18th century to create decorated ceramics for everyday use. This method is still used today. Create a pair of nesting bowls, to make a set of unique custom ceramics. These low-profile bowls are great for serving all kinds of side dishes or filling with your favorite fruit as a centerpiece. Students can also choose from a selection of platters, mugs and small dishes. Students will work with 1800 House instructor Mary Emery Lacoursiere.
This course is conducted over the weekend, and those enrolled will receive a list of B&Bs to find lodging. Students may also enjoy a walking tour, a tour of the museum and a group dinner on Saturday. Dinner is a separate expense, which will be emailed to participants ahead of time.
