Glazing a Ceramic Charcuterie Plate: 2-Day Workshop at The Curious Forge
Create a Stunning, Food-Safe Serving Piece!
Join us for a two-day glazing workshop where you’ll transform a 14″ ceramic plate into a one-of-a-kind charcuterie board that’s as beautiful as it is functional. You’ll learn surface decoration techniques and design a plate that doubles as a guide for arranging a bountiful spread of meats, cheeses, fruits, and more. A clear glaze finish gives your piece a brilliant, glossy shine, and it’s food safe and ready for entertaining.
Why Take This Class?
- Make Functional Art You’ll Actually Use: Your finished plate is food safe and designed to make every gathering feel special, from holiday parties to casual nights in.

- Learn Ceramic Glazing Techniques: Whether you’re just starting out or have some clay experience, you’ll leave with glazing techniques you can apply to future projects.
What You’ll Learn:
- Image transfer techniques to bring your design onto the plate
- How to apply underglazes for bold color and detail
- How to use oxide washes to add depth and character
- Proper glaze application, including a clear overall glaze for a brilliant, food-safe finish
