Explore the creative process of working with clay in a welcoming and supportive studio environment.  Each session introduces new concepts and opportunities for creativity.

Artists (age 15-adult) learn how to design, construct, refine, glaze, and complete ceramic artwork from start to finish using a variety of hand-building techniques.  Classes explore important foundations including form, texture, surface design, glazing, and kiln firing while encouraging artistic expression.

Finished pieces are kiln fired, resulting in unique ceramic artwork designed to be both functional and cherished for years to come.

Please be aware that sharp tools will be used during the course of this class, and you understand the risks involved with you and/or your artist using such instruments.

**A special note about attendance:  You are given 4 classes in which to complete a finished piece of greenware (dried, unfired clay).  This flexibility allows for you to attend only as many classes as you need, and the twice-weekly schedule provides you more control over the drying process, and no issues with absences.  Keep in mind, however, that deadlines are in place for kiln firing, hence the one week with NO CLASS.  This time allows for complete drying and kiln-firing.  The last week of two classes is reserved for glazing.  The scheduled dates for the kiln firings (the first for greenware, the second after glazing) are set, and will take place regardless of the artist’s readiness of a piece.  Because it is our goal to provide every opportunity for the artist to create a piece of which they are proud, we strongly encourage you to understand the schedule for each class.  Click here to see the schedule on our Calendar page.

Finished piece pickup will occur during designated times, typically on regularly scheduled class day, one week following last class of that session.
