Description

This course will focus on wheel throwing, hand building and glazing techniques. There will be weekly demonstrations on how to make various functional wares (mugs, bowls, pitchers, casseroles, plates, etc.) for students with some experience. We will also explore closed forms, slab vases, and the use of handmade clay stamps and molds. Clay will be fired to Cone 6 in an electric kiln unless students want to explore Cone 10 gas firing for an additional charge of $25.00 per course or to be charged per piece. During the end of the course as the weather cooperates (hopefully!) we will do some raku firings with crackle and copper luster glazes. Clay must be purchased through the Craft Enrichment Program.

You must register for this class and all craft enrichment courses. Please use our registration form on our website.
