Handbuilding 101 | Mondays 6:30pm-8:30pm OR Thursdays 1:00-3:00pm

$325.00

This class is designed for those curious about ceramics, as well as those with prior experience who are looking to get back into the swing of things. We’ll learn the basics of hand-building ceramic forms that don’t require the use of a potter’s wheel. In addition to the foundational techniques of slab, coil, and pinch, we’ll cover joining methods, moisture control, and glazing and firing processes. Hand-building offers endless creative freedom—the only limit to what you can create is your imagination.
