If you’re interested in working with clay but aren’t ready to commit to a full class, we offer a private 4-week handbuilding tableware course designed to prepare you for creating at home.
Week 1: Pinching
Pinching is the most approachable and meditative way to begin working with clay. In this first week, you’ll learn this foundational technique while creating simple bowls and vases.
Week 2: Coiling
Coiling is an excellent method for building height in hand-built forms. This week, you’ll focus on making vases, planters, mugs, or bowls.
Week 3: Soft Slabs
Soft slab construction allows for more geometric or non-symmetrical forms. You’ll create pieces like rectangular catch-alls and mugs while exploring this versatile technique.
Week 4: Glazing
Glazing adds color and finish to your ceramic work. In the final week, you’ll learn how to glaze your pieces at Ovington Pottery, preparing you to confidently use the studio during your Home Membership
Classes will meet four times for two hours at a time, most likely on Saturday mornings.
Schedule to be arranged with Katie - please email her at Ovingtonpottery@gmail.com to arrange.
Cost:
$600 + 3%CC Fee
Included in your class:
