Clay Session Workshop - in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal

Margarida Moreira Martins is a Portuguese ceramic artist and designer based in Caldas da Rainha. She explores ceramics with a methodic design approach. This means that she is adapting to the ceramics behavior and the changes this might cause in the materialization of her primary idea. Eventually, she finds the balance between the thought and the object. Invested in a sustainable production, she uses local resources in small handmade series.

In Margarida's ✨Clay Session Workshops✨ you learn three different techniques to work with clay by using your own hands.
The artist gives you a brief introduction to the ceramics world with the aim to give you basic notions of this ancient material that plays such an important role in the history and development of the city of Caldas da Rainha.

At the end of her workshops, Margarida serves you some tea and delicious sugar-free vegan desserts provided by local producer and friend (Instagram @tamaras.e.cacau). You gonna have the chance to get to socialize and know each other better.
