Are you interested in exploring with clay? This interactive class is designed for anyone seeking experience in hand-building, throwing on the wheel, and glazing their finished work. Students will have the opportunity to work independently or with the instructor, who provides support through group demonstrations and individualized instruction. Great for beginners or as a refresher for students with past experience.
NEW: Included in the cost of class is one 25-pound bag of clay of the student’s choice, provided on the first day of class or available for pick-up when needed. Glazes and firing are also included in the class price. Please bring an old kitchen-sized towel you don’t mind getting dirty, and wear closed-toe shoes.
