Historic New Harmony invites schoolchildren to New Harmony, Indiana virtually to experience what life was like in the 1800s through the eyes of a variety of period artisans. This year we welcome back artisans who specialize in paper marbling, broom making and blacksmithing, to name just a few. During the week of April 12-16, we will bring you a new artisan each day to demonstrate their craft and talk about life in the 1800s via Zoom, free of charge. We will have three identical demonstrations each day, 9 a.m., 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. so, you can pick the time that is most convenient for your class schedule.

Schedule:

9:00am, 11:00am and 1:00pm: Tom Wintczak - Harmonist Pottery

Potter: Tom Wintczak demonstrates the techniques and styles of pottery making of the early 1800s. He demonstrates how the Harmonist made their pottery through the style of Sgraffito.
