Top off your week in a fun, supportive studio environment with an array of projects, from functional pottery to sculptural forms, as we introduce you to a range of clay-working techniques. Learn traditional forming techniques such as pinch, coil, and slab construction. If you are more experienced, you can pursue your own independent project with guidance from the instructor. Critical dialogue with the instructor and the group, through supportive critique methods, will be encouraged. This class is for intermediate to advance level students, with well established clay working skills.
