South Fellini x Mug Coffee and Clay - PHILLY DOORS Clay Workshop
Sat, Jan 24 • 1:00 PM-4:00 PM
Learn what's behind the doors of Philadelphia & make a unique door of your own! In this special collab workshop, we will have a presentation by guest host Tony Trov of Passyunk shop South Fellini. Tony will share his extensive knowledge and experiences from his passion project: working to preserve the history of Philly's charming and iconic doors. We're talking Tofani, sister doors, vestibules, atomic details, and trash picking triumphs. Following the talk, we will then construct our own mini-doors from clay, for hanging keys & catch-all. Personalize your door with your house number, color, and details that make your door iconic. All clay & materials, wiring / wall mounting materials included. Final pieces will be ready for pick up on during MUG's open hours (Tues - Fri 7a - 4p or Sat & Sun 8a - 4p). Participants will be notified via email when the doors are ready for pick up.
