3 Week Intensive Handbuilding Class

This 3 week, 6 session class, welcomes students of all levels and will cover basic handbuilding techniques including pinching, coiling, slab building, applying textures, glazing, and fundamentals of the life cycle and process of ceramics. More advanced students are welcome to work and receive guidance on their own personal projects.

• The first two weeks (4 sessions) of class will focus on building and creating pieces, we will then skip a week for firing, and then the final week (2 sessions) of class will focus on glazing.

• All students will have their own shelf in the studio to store their clay, tools, and projects. The course fee includes unlimited studio clay and house glazes. (Additional clays can be purchased at the studio if desired.)

• Students can bring their own tools or purchase them from the studio for $15 or on your first day of class), and should bring their own aprons and towels if needed.

• The student firing fee is $0.06 per cubic inch which covers the cost of bisque and glaze firing

• All work must be completed or ready to go into the final glaze kiln by the end of the last class.

• Students will have the option to book additional studio time ($20 per hour) if they would like more than the allotted class time. This class does not include any open studio time outside of the class times.
