Clay Classes


Summer Specialty Classes

For each of these intro classes, during the first 30-45 minutes the instructor will give a demonstration, followed by individualized guidance as students create with clay. We will work with wet clay, followed by learning to trim and shape the semi-dried (“leather hard”) clay, and finally painting or glazing (if preparing for the kiln).
