Clay Arts

Spend two weeks in the studio sculpting clay and learning to throw on the potters wheel! Students will learn fundamental handbuilding techniques, surface treatments, and glazing effects. On the wheel, students will create thrown plates, cups, bowls, and vases. Projects will be created from white stoneware. No clay experience needed.
