Marvelous Mud Opens This Weekend We're kicking off our summer blockbuster with a bang. This weekend explore the eight exhibitions in Marvelous Mud: Clay Around the World, get your hands dirty in the interactive Mud Studio, see a raku firing, and more! Opening Weekend June 11 & 12, 10 am–5 pm Raku Firing Watch a live raku firing on the plaza. Artist Bob Smith demonstrates his firing technique on Martin Plaza, complete with smoke and flames. Artists at Work Santa Clara artist Roxanne Swentzell continues work on her 10-foot sculpture, Mud Woman Rolls On, in the American Indian art galleries. In the interactive Mud Studio, artist Robin Furuta shows you how to use a potter's wheel. Try to throw your own pot or build one by hand. New Hotspots We've created new in-gallery activities for Marvelous Mud. Every weekend you can experiment with something new, including trying your hand at Hopi painting techniques or designing a clay pot like those used to prepare chocolate in Colonial Mexico. Member Moments Members get a sneak peek of Marvelous Mud Friday night. We're also opening the museum one hour early on Saturday and they can hear exclusive insights from curators. Not a member?
