Geo-ceramic field trip to Abiquiu New Mexico
Like many New Mexico potters, you may have been digging clay in Abiquiu for decades, where it is abundant, beautiful, and easily accessible. Just why is that - and how did all that beautiful clay get there?
Join Cal State geologists Josh Schwartz & Elena Miranda as they lead a tour of Abiquiu, surveying the geology of the Chama river valley, helping us learn to recognize clay, and to understand a bit about the formation of this iconic landscape we all love & draw inspiration from as we work in the clay studio. Also feel free to register for Elena & Josh’s slide talk the day before - 5pm in the studio.
Note: while we encourage carpooling & may be able to help coordinate, the studio does not provide transportation for this field trip.
Leaders: Elena Miranda & Josh Schwartz
Location: Abiquiu New Mexico (we’ll arrange carpooling once we have a complete registration)
Time: Saturday July 6, 9am - 3pm (our return time is approximate)
Limit: 20 participants
Cost: $35
