Come Play in the Clay!

Come spend the week playing in the “mud” with two ceramicists who love sharing their clay talents with young folks. Each student will have the opportunity to learn throwing skills on the potter’s wheel as well as create several hand-built projects. You will also learn how your clay projects will be fired and glazed.

No experience is necessary – just your willingness to come and have fun creating in clay.

Sign up early as class is limited to 12 participants.

Please bring a snack.

Tuition: $200.00 – All materials, glazing and firings included.
