New to clay? This 4-week course is the perfect place to start. We’ll cover the foundational handbuilding techniques (pinch, coil, and slab) while creating functional and decorative pieces like cups, bowls, plates, planters, and vases, etc. The class schedule is as follows:
(9/3) Week 1: Learn the basics of pinch pot and coil building.
(9/10) Week 2: Learn to build with clay slabs.
(9/17) Week 3: Potters Choice! Use pinch pot, coil, or slab building, or a combination of all three!
**NOTE: We will skip one week to allow time for pottery drying and bisque firing**
(10/1) Week 4: Glaze Day!
Intro to pottery glazing techniques. Students will glaze all bisque-fired pieces from previous weeks.
