Morning Beginner Adult Class

Tuesday Mornings, 10am-12:30pm September 3-October 22 

Cost: $340 + $25 tool kit
This includes 16 free hours of open studio time but does not include firing fees, which are based on the size of the pieces you create.

In this class, you'll work primarily on the pottery wheel, but you'll also learn handbuilding and decorating skills. On the first morning, after a studio orientation, you'll learn how to prep your clay on the wedging table and throw a bowl on the wheel! 

In each subsequent week, you'll build on your skills, learning to trim and glaze your pieces as well as work with more clay, learning other forms such as mugs and plates. You will also create a slab-built mug off the pottery wheel.

 

ADULT HANDBUILDING CLASS

September 6-October 25 (8 weeks) 

November 1-December 20, (8 weeks)

We are now offering a morning handbuilding only class! Do you love being creative with clay? Is wheel not your thing? Join us for this 8 week class where we will explore everything clay has to offer OFF of the wheel! 

A mix of functional and decorative projects using traditional handbuilding methods such as slab, coil and sculpting. We will start with specific projects to develop great techniques, and then branch off into some open ended projects that are more student driven and allow for more creative exploration. Surface decoration will be emphasized throughout.
