Handbuilding Basics – A Four-Week Workshop: Thursday evenings, 5:30–8:30, January 30–February 20, 2025 – No prior clay experience necessary!
Yes, we all love the movie Ghost, but pottery is so much more than just the wheel!
Over the course of four 3-hour sessions we will explore some of the essential techniques of handbuilding, making several unique functional pieces to take home. You will build confidence working with both soft and leather-hard clay, and explore a variety of surface texturing and glazing techniques. Possible projects will include a serving dish, an angular vase, and a utensil caddy (all food, oven, microwave and dishwasher safe).
