Wednesday afternoons, 1-4pm
6 week series, October 23th - November 27th
Open to all levels
This fall, we'll explore handbuilt forms, working the potter's wheel and surface decoration.  Personal expression will be encouraged through form, function, and surface. Management of clay forms will be guided throughout to deepen our understanding of the stages of clay. 
 
Advanced students may choose to work more independently with support and guidance where needed. 
 
This class is suitable for new beginners, clay curious & clay lovers alike to build on previous skills and fulfill your creative visions. Particpants will create an average of 4-10 finished pieces depending on skill and level of detail.
 
Class size is limited. We require a minimum of 6 participants to proceed.
