1 x 3 hours and 2 x 2 to 3 hours - Includes clay, glazes and firings
Teacher: Julie Martin
For beginner and intermediate potters (hand building) age 16 to 116 : )
In a small group setting of three or four students, this is a great opportunity to experience pottery making in a friendly and comfortable environment, and a perfect introduction to clay art!
Potters will explore hand building techniques to create their own collection, following the theme of the chosen class.
Botanical imprints: Pick your preferred leaves or flowers to imprint on your plates, small bowls, coasters and/or magnets, then we apply colour, and glaze them!
Dinner plate set: Make a set of four to six dinner plates, with accents and surface decorations techniques like engraving, stamping, or colour application.
Lanterns and tealights: Just in time for the cold season, potters will make lanterns and tea lights using the 'Devil's Work' technique.
Pie plate set: One pie plate and four dessert plates, with your own surface decoration choices. A set that just might justify some bragging rights!
Pinch Pot Galore: Make your collection of pinch pots! Little pinch pots with lids, espresso cups, tealight holders, succulent planters... so many possibilities!
