About the event
Students will learn how to create in clay using pinch pot, coil, and slab techniques.
Students will learn how to correctly join clay, a three-step process, for adding handles, feet, noses, arms, etc.
Students will learn how to manipulate the surface of the clay using various tools.
Details:
Students will make pieces of functional pottery such as a spoon dish and a cylinder, which will be fired twice and can used at home. Also, some creative pieces using their own ideas.
Students will be stamping, and making impressions in creations with found objects, leaves, seashells, stamps, and special clay stamps applied with a small roller.
Dried creations will be fired for the first time so that students can underglaze and glaze their pieces. Their glazed work will be fired again. Note: glazing makes it waterproof.
Students will create about 5 pieces. Their creations will be ready for pick up a week after the last class.
