Cookie Stamps 🍪

Explore the art of cookie stamping in two mediums: dough and clay! We’ll start by stamping and baking cookie dough to get a feel for how different designs work, then we’ll switch to clay where you’ll make your own custom cookie stamp! Cookie stamps will be fired and ready to take home by the end of March. No experience necessary. (Age 10+) **Location: United Methodist Church kitchen, 1612 Fourth St, La Grande (enter through main doors on back side of building).** Teaching Artists: Sarah West & Connie Sherrard

Cost: $48 Member / $58 Non-Member

Sarah is a baker who owns a pop-up business called Teahouse that specializes in whole grain pastries, bread, and cookies. She has been stamping cookies for several years using various tools. She began making her own cookie stamps when she took the ceramics handbuilding class with Connie in 2019. Coincidentally, Sarah also has a bachelor’s degree from Beloit College.
Connie has a Bachelor’s in Studio Art from Beloit College, Wisconsin, which is where she was first introduced to throwing clay on the wheel. Her professional career has been in Human Services; however, she keeps coming back to ceramics because working with clay is what she loves to do.
