FUNDAMENTALS IN CLAY: Week-long immersions at an introductory level

This course model is designed to offer an intensive dive into the vast world of clay, one field at a time.  Each thematically-based week focuses on 5 days (M-F) of hands-on instruction and making.  A following +2 days allows participants to return post bisque-firing to experience the glazing portion of the ceramic process.  With an expert instructor sharing daily demonstrations and plenty of independent practice time, this is an incredible format to jumpstart an interest in ceramics!

COST: $700 usd includes: five intensive mornings of throwing tuition (M-F), followed by two days of glazing instruction and practicum; access to studio, tools, and equipment 9am-5pm for all class days.
