Join us for an artful adventure in clay. Experience what it feels like to take a ball of clay and transform it into a piece of art using your own hands. Explore the foundational hand-building skills of this incredible art form. Express your unique artful style as you learn a variety of techniques for your clay creations. We will create 2-3 different projects and experiment with different clay techniques.

Whether you are a beginner, or have experience with pottery, this class offers a wonderful opportunity to learn and grow as an artist through the clay. This class is designed for you to connect to the clay and learn to express yourself through the art of pottery. If you are new to clay this is a great opportunity to explore the earth through art. If you have taken ceramics classes before this class will strengthen those skills and offer some different techniques and prompts for you to explore your connection to the clay.
