Hand building
In a hand building class, students will explore how to build functional or sculptural objects without using a pottery wheel. Methods taught include pinching, coiling, slab building, using molds, sculpting solid forms and hollowing out, and carving. Glazing is always covered in the last class.
Students can expect to take home 4-6 pieces in a 6-week class. All materials and use of studio tools are included. Please provide your own apron or towel. For extra practice, student drop-ins are available on Saturday mornings for $25.
Skill level: This class is appropriate for all levels; you could be new to clay, or more experienced.
