Clint Swink's 23 years of research and production has unveiled a tremendous body of knowledge, which he offers unselfishly through various workshop formats.
His workshops stress fundamental craftsmanship, artistic achievement and authentic replication. He hopes that as more people become involved in the production of archaeologically correct ceramics, we can move closer towards answering the many questions about these remarkable people who silently communicate with us through their art.

Dangerfield, and I are offering the Sixth Maya Pottery Research Workshop.

Milpa site and plenty of jungle potting! Participants must be ablebodied

hazard of harmful insects and snakes. All experience levels This year we are offering only private and semi-private lessons at Redtail, my home/studios near Durango, Colorado.
