To commemorate the explosive history of Mount St. Helens, the WSU Department of Art invites participation in the creation of 100 pieces of ash-glazed flatware. Workshop participants will learn about volcanic ash, assist in rolling slabs of clay, and shaping and decorating commemorative plates.* The commemoration will culminate on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU in connection with The Art of Food, From the Collections of Jordan D.
