Time: 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm

Ages 16 and up

CLASS COST: $150

In this class we’ll learn how to create coil, pinch, and slab-formed vessels and sculptures while working with mid fire clay (which you will be learning about!) The firing process will include bisque firing and a glaze firing. In order to guarantee a smooth-flowing series of projects, we will work on a variety of large and small forms through the five weeks. No previous experience is required, beginners are very welcome! If you do have experience in hand-building, this is your chance to brush off the rust, get back in the saddle and continue your work with this rewarding medium!

$230 FOR THE 6 WEEK WORKSHOP (this fee covers all classes, glazes, firing and 10 KG BAG OF CLAY)

This workshop is specifically designed for brand new to moderately experienced students

Throwing on the potters wheel is very hard to describe for those who have not experienced it before. The best explanation we’ve heard is that is a combination of meditation, riding a bicycle and solitary mud wrestling at the same time. No matter how you describe it, it’s great fun! More importantly anyone can learn to be a successful potter... Yes, anyone! These specific workshops will focus on refining technique and sensing. The curriculum will have a back to the basics focus that will propel your skills to the next level. The six week workshop will guide you step-by-step through throwing technique, glazing and firing. This is a fun and informal workshop for brand new students.

We will also offer some spots for sculpting, hand building, etc... which will be available at a lower rate. Please contact us if you are interested in these (non-potters wheel) options which will occur at the same time.

Please call (570) 470-5572 with any questions.
