Why buy it when you can make it in clay? This class will explore numerous possibilities of what can be made in clay, from mugs to vases to keepsake boxes and more! With a focus on numerous hand-building techniques, we will learn the proper way to assemble and glaze our projects. Each student will learn how to make pinch pots, hand-build with slabs, slump, sculpt, and have a chance to work on the pottery wheel.
