Get your hands dirty in this weekly hand-building class. Hand-building is the art of making clay forms on a tabletop instead of a wheel – mugs, vases, bowls, other vessels and sculptures can all be hand built. Beginners will learn pinch pots, coiling, slab building and surface decoration. If you are more advanced in your practice, we will use this time to hone your basic skills or elevate your skill set with weekly guidance. This class is for you if you want a chance to try a clay class, have only take 1 or 2 handbuilding classes, or want guidance in your own handbuilding practice.
