First workshop on pottery within the EU project "Unknown Krka"

The first three-day workshop of the project "Unknown Krka: hidden treasures of the upper and middle reaches of the Krka River" (KK 06.1.2.01.003), co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund under the Operational Program ‘Competitiveness and Cohesion’ 2014-2020, of total value HRK 80,057,649,15 was held at the Krka Eco Campus in Puljane.  

Sixteen participants of the three-day workshop learned more about the basics and characteristics of materials, clay preparation, centering and throwing, pot formation techniques, two-piece molds, turning and polishing molds, making and gluing handles and drying, with the help of Henry Marić, an independent artist from Barban who has been making and studying ceramics since the mid-1990s.

In order to get inspiration for their work, the participants visited the Burnum Archaeological Collection at the Krka Eco Campus in Puljane, which exhibits objects found during archaeological excavations at the Burnum site.
