Meet your instructors:
Viola – Instructor at Lerværk
Viola is a creative soul with her hands deep in clay and a heart full of ideas. She has several years of experience with ceramics and loves exploring how form, texture, and function can come together in new ways.
As an instructor, Viola is curious, present, and inspiring. She meets both children and adults at eye level and creates a safe space where everyone can be creative, regardless of skill level.
She is particularly passionate about experimenting with techniques and finding new paths in ceramic expression, often finding inspiration in her students and the atmosphere of the workshop. Beyond her ceramics background, she has extensive experience in teaching and participatory learning, and is passionate about creating communities built around craftsmanship and the joy of creating.
Josephine – Instructor at Lerværk
On a daily basis, I study political science at Aalborg University, but when I don't have my nose in the books, I work at Lervaerket and spend a lot of time on ceramics. I am especially fond of hand-building because I love the organic and personal expression it creates.
However, I am also always ready to help if you want to try your hand at wheel-throwing—so whether you are mostly into hand-building, the potter's wheel, or don't even know yet what you want to make, I'll be happy to guide you along the way.
To me, ceramics isn't about making something perfect, but about experimenting, being creative, and creating something that is completely your own. I look forward to some cozy hours filled with plenty of creativity, laughter, and of course, a bit of clay all over the place!
