Explore the concepts and techniques underlying the construction and
decoration of Nigerian pottery. Experience the actual forming of clay drums by traditional hand building methods. African tribal design motifs and symbolism are discussed and utilized as surface decoration. Each participant completes multiple UDU drums during this trans-cultural experience. The final day culminates in an outdoor primitive type firing, potluck meal, and musical drum jam session around an open fire in the evening. Each student should finish the workshop with multiple completed udu drums.
