2024 Porcelain Art School
November 19-20, 2024 • 9:00 am to 4:00 pm each day
Bergman Lusters • 1964 County Road B West, Roseville

You will paint ornaments for half-day each with two of our teachers:

  • Nancy Bergman will focus on lusters
  • Val Naber will focus on penwork and china painting

Teachers will guide you in the design process and help you execute your design.

You can supply our own ornaments and supplies if you have them.  Teachers will have ornaments and supplies for sale during class.

You should be able to complete two ornaments per teacher with a maximum of 6.  We will fire both nights and bring ornaments to the MPAG meeting on Thursday Nov. 21st for pickup.

Soups will be provided for lunch.  Students are asked to bring something to compliment the soup, snacks and/or dessert.

Once signed up and paid, you will be emailed a supply list. Send payment to: Barbie Braman, 8040 Stevens Ave. S, Bloomington, MN 55420.

Questions? Contact Val Naber at 715-658-1968.
