This class is designed to demonstrate to the beginner the wide range of techniques clay artists use to make functional and sculptural work.

Basic wheel techniques such as how to center, pull a wall, trim a foot and ultimately how to make functional pottery will be covered in the second half of the class. Glazing techniques will be demonstrated so as to help develop various surfaces and a sense of personal style.

Here are some of the custom workshops we have designed: Standing Figures inspired by the Terracotta Chinese Soldiers. Two Children ages 10-12 worked with one instructor for four two hour days. Each student made one 14” figure. Garden Tile Markers was the theme for the students of Sayre High School in Philadelphia. 12 Students ages 16 worked with 4 instructors to produce vegetable markers for a new garden that the children were involved in creating. The students had to create a three dimensional vegetable and design the front and back of a 14”x8” marker. The students used underglaze pencils to inscribe nutritional information on the tiles. This was a four day project each day the students worked for 3 hours. Birthday Party Pottery Class for all ages Private Lessons, make great gift ideas.
