In this 10-week class for ages 11-15, students will enjoy a varied experience in clay. Using hand-building techniques and the potter’s wheel, students will learn and develop both hand-building and throwing skills. This class will cover the foundational techniques of forming pinch, coil and slab pots, in order to create sculptural forms, cups and bowls. As students refine these skills, they will work on more complex projects that will enable them to combine techniques and push their own creativity and problem solving abilities. Glazing and other surface treatments will be explored. Class includes all materials and firing.
