Participants will hand-build their ghosties with the guidance of talented ceramicist Sany Parfait, using the best ceramic supplies provided. After constructing your masterpiece, the ghostie will be fired and dipped, ready for pick-up on October 26th. You’ll be able to take home a memorable keepsake to celebrate the spooky season!

In addition to creating your tea light ghostie, there will be treats (and maybe even a few tricks) for all participants. This is an experience designed to encourage creativity and fun in a family-friendly environment.
