Scouts are required to bring a 200+ page novel that they have read in the past. All other materials and snacks will be provided. At the end, scouts will walk away with a hand-crafted book, writing advice from an author, a unique fun patch, and a Fanny Seward bookmark.

Botanical Imprint Pottery Workshop

9/21/2025 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM

Join us for a free-spirited pottery workshop and learn to handcraft a one-of-a-kind ceramic piece imprinted with flowers, stems and seasonal botanical elements.

In this workshop, you'll learn how to work with hand-building pottery techniques and create botanical impressions in clay using local flora grown and gathered with care from Schoolhouse Farms in Borodino. Enjoy exploring how to compose and imprint flora into clay, play with texture and form, and shape your own nature-inspired ceramic piece — all while reconnecting with a slower, more intuitive way of creating in the relaxed environment of Hartlot Happening.

All materials are provided and no prior experience with clay is necessary. All that is required is your interest in getting your hands dirty, filling them with earth and beauty and shaping something lasting from the fleeting beauty of the season.

We’ll close the workshop with coffee and other earthy sips from Milkhouse Roastery and thoughtfully prepared light seasonal fare.

After the workshop, pieces will be dried, bisque fired, glazed and then fired again in the kilns at Hartlot Happening. Once fired, your pieces will be available for pick up or delivery by mail. Participants can expect to receive their fired work approximately 3 weeks after the workshop.

Space is limited to 15 attendees.
