We’ll cover how to navigate the studio, understand the stages of clay, and get comfortable with the tools and equipment used throughout the process. You’ll gain a clear understanding of how ceramics works—from forming to drying, firing, and glazing—so you feel confident creating both in and outside of class. The primary focus will be on hand-building techniques such as pinching, coiling, slab-building, and surface design. Students may also have the opportunity to try the potter’s wheel for a brief introduction, depending on time and interest. Whether you’re brand new or coming in with some experience, this class offers a supportive, creative environment to build skills, ask questions, and bring your ideas to life.\nAll studio tools are provided.
