During this engaging and structured course, students will learn a variety of pottery techniques including pinch pots, coiling, slab building, surface design, and glazing through demonstrations and individual projects.  Students will also learn studio etiquette, materials handling and clean up. This is the perfect class for those new to clay, beginners, and those who have had some clay experience (intermediate). Participants will finish with a better understanding and appreciation for the ceramic medium and its processes as well as a collection of their very own ceramic ‘masterpieces’.

By taking this class, participants will become familiar with the ins and outs of our wonderful ceramics studio and if they so choose, become studio members. With your 8 week class registration, students receive the opportunity to purchase a studio pass for ½ off during the duration of their class.
