Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Wednesday, February 8, 2023.
A great class for homeschoolers, preschoolers (with caregiver present) and people with flexible schedules. This class focuses on handbuilding techniques including pinch, coil and slab construction as well as surface treatment and glazing.
Students can create functional items such as vases, soap dishes and teacups as well as sculptures including portrait heads and whimsical animals. Dream something up and try it out in the studio. Experienced potters may use studio's electric wheels to pursue independent projects.
A $25 materials fee is due to the instructor on the first day of class.
Instructor: Caroline MacKinnon
Hazardous Materials: Hands and clothes should be washed after using clay and glazes. All glazes are non-toxic and food safe. Fettling knives and other tools with sharp edges or points such as skewers and cookie cutters are used in the class.
