Slab Built Mugs
While some off-the-shelf coffee mugs have a strong build, the handle may not fit your hand quite right. Make your very own mug or teacup that molds to your hand perfectly in this demonstration, which teaches slab construction, coil building, pinching, and decoration techniques.

Opera Memphis
Pygmalion 2.0
This production pairs Donizetti’s Pygmalion with Robert Paterson/David Cote’s The Companion for an experience that explores the many facets of companionship. From the ancient tale of a sculptor and a king to the not-so-distant future where robots take companionship positions to a whole new level, this is a show you will not forget.
