I LIKE BIG POTS
This two week class is all about BIG POTS! Each student will get up to 20 lbs of clay to create their pot(s) with. You may choose to make multiple pots or use all of the clay on one large piece. For those who wish to build the biggest pot possible, both sessions will be spent handbuilding. We will do as much as we can the first week, wrap it up and keep it wet until the second week. Those who choose to go smaller will be able to spend the second week glazing their once fired pieces. Additional clay can be purchased for the pot heads in class who just can’t get enough!

Tuesdays: Planetary Pots & Prints
This three week workshop will incorporate both ceramics and screenprinting. Our first week will be spent making planetary pots and cosmic charms out of clay.
