We Have a Passion for Clay

Want to learn? 

We offer workshops in raku, studio classroom technique, glaze techniques, single class clay expression etc. In the first class students create a wall sculpture, tall nine inch slab vase and a wheel formed pot.

 Students are saying the pottery classes are “fun and fulfilling and they want more! 

We have a passion for clay, two college educated instructors, handbuilding and wheelthrowing with some sculpture in six week, three hour sessions. 

Intense, yet relaxing, students create about three works per class. We are a resource in clay techniques and information for area art teachers. We taught, collaborated, and consulted with four area teachers, and other community organizations. 

Wanting to share the process of creating in clay, I expanded into a downstairs classroom studio.

We have 6 potters wheels, and two instructors teaching clay; wheel thrown forms, hand-building and high-fire glazing technique. We combine wheel throwing and hand building to make vases, platters and sculptures. Students make 10 to 15 pieces per class course, and have success with results that they are proud to show their friends. Students learn to develop basic and advanced pottery skills, including throwing on the wheel, and hand building functional ceramic forms. Students finish their pieces with various decorative high-fire glazing techniques.

Students have continued with further sessions and are pleased. For adult students we are playful and intense yet relaxing. For younger students, 13 to 20 years, we are college prep for careers in art.
