Wednesdays, 3PM-5PM August 26 - October 7 In this six-week class, young artists will explore the pottery process while building foundational clay skills. Each two-hour class includes hands-on instruction in pottery basics. While the focus of the class series will be on the basics of handbuilding, with a focus on handbuilding techniques and an opportunity to experience throwing clay on the pottery wheel.
