Handmade Vase-making Class with Maja Sandvang - Thursday, 3.13.25, 6PM-8PM

Handmade Vase Workshop

Thursday, 3.13.24, 6PM-8PM

Be Just Classroom, 2415 Ivy Road, Charlottesville VA

Join us for another ceramics workshop in the Be Just Classroom! This workshop is suitable for beginners as well as for those who have taken one or two classes prior, and are looking to build upon their skills.

The shops's very own Maja Sandvang, talented local potter and owner of Maja Sandvang Ceramics & Art, will lead this session. Maja will briefly introduce participants to the art of hand-building vases with porcelain clay, offering an overview of ceramic-making principles and demonstrating her unique techniques. Under her guidance, each participant will craft their own custom-made vase to take home.

All of the materials needed for this class will be provided. Participants will choose from a selection of glazes after creating their individual vase. After the class, Maja will fire and glaze each participant's creation. Completed vases will be available for in-shop pick-up within four weeks of the workshop. 

About the Instructor:

Maja’s approach to art is minimalistic, simple, and unique. This style is highly influenced by her time spent in nature—across Charlottesville and Scottsville—as well as attributed to her formative years in Denmark. Maja loves that ceramics help her to explore her creative side while building community. When teaching, she hopes that her students will also enjoy the tactile side of making unique pieces in a collaborative setting.

You can learn more about Maja and her work by visiting her website, https://www.majasandvang.com

A selection of her pieces—ranging from her eponymous vases to organic napkin rings—are also available to view and shop at Be Just on Ivy Road.
