Fun guided tour

Ceramics workshop
Keramis offers two types of activities to appeal to your creativity and imagination:
-
the first looks at an everyday item, the techniques used to make it and the Boch collections
-
the second, more sculptural option comprises an introduction to the techniques of modelling and is more closely linked to the collections of contemporary works and the temporary exhibition.
The creations will be fired afterwards and, depending on what they are, enamelled in order to guarantee their suitability for everyday use.
