Sundays Nov 5th to Dec 10   4:30 to 6:45pm,  8 classes  

This is a class aimed to introduce the student to pottery craftsmanship.  Class will provide structured lessons  to further develop micro-hand positioning and tool competencies to achieve alternating contours and shapes,  create different rim types (e.g. flared, rolled, fluted),  we will make mini-pots by learning to  "throw off the hump",  introduction to compound structures (e.g. lidded vessel) and  working with coloured clay fabrication. 

Finally, two classes combined on final day for a "glaze-a-thon" decorating lession.  Devoted to  enhancing your decorating techniques at both the greenware and bisque stage.  

You should have a solid grasp of the fundamentals, meaning that centering your clay should feel intuitive, and you can throw a consistent cylinder with even wall thickness.   There is a waitlist being taken= email; pmcneice@shaw.ca. 

 

NOTE: Masks are now optional. Still sanitize when entering the studio. . Bring your own apron and hand towels to take home, please.

For your safety, tie long hair back. Cords on tops, ties or long jewelry must be tucked away.   Long finger nails and rings may interfere with the outcome of your pot.
