Introduction to Ceramics    NEW!

In this beginning ceramics course, students will be introduced to the beauty of clay. They will learn and explore coil building, slab construction, pinching, and basic wheel-throwing techniques. Using this know-how, students will create functional and decorative clay pieces while exploring the various ways to form and manipulate clay. Instructors will focus on different building techniques each week. The course will likely be divided into two weeks of hand-building and two weeks of wheel-throwing. A variety of glazing and surface decoration techniques will be introduced as well. By the end of this course, students will be able to independently create pieces. Specific techniques and lessons will vary, depending on student interest.

NOTE: There is a fee of $20 materials cost per student.
