All skill levels are welcome! From those who have never touched clay to those seeking to learn new forms and techniques, this class is for you. Students will be able to focus on projects they want to accomplish, with guidance from our instructors. Instructors will do basic instruction for the student new to clay at the beginning of the session and will do more advanced demonstrations upon request throughout the session. This class meets for three (3) hours once a week for six (6) weeks.

Clay and tools will be available for purchase through our website ahead of class or at onsite at the studio. You are welcome to bring your own tools and use studio sets. Firing fees are $1 per lb and include cone 6 electric glazes. To simplify the process the fees are built into each bag of clay purchased and vary pending the clay used. For example, our cheapest clay is $19 per 25lb bag, so plus $25 at $44 you get the clay, glaze and pieces you make from that bag fired. Outside commercial glazed can be used after instructor approval, otherwise all glazes are made in house. Please note that this is an adult class, 18 and up. We will accept teen students 14-17 but they must be taking the class WITH a parent or legal guardian. Want more studio time? Open Studio Hours will be available for current students. Ask your instructor for information!
