This course offers a welcoming introduction to working on the pottery wheel. Designed for beginners, students learn the foundational skills needed to shape clay into simple, functional forms while building confidence at the wheel. Instruction focuses on how clay responds to movement and pressure, guiding students step by step through throwing, trimming, and glazing. Alongside wheel skills, students are introduced to working in a shared studio environment. We cover essential studio practices, safety protocols, clay recycling, glaze systems, and how to care for tools and workspaces, so students feel confident and responsible using the studio. By the end of the course, students will have created finished ceramic pieces and gained a solid foundation for continuing into intermediate classes or open studio work. No prior ceramics experience is required.

During this hands-on Kintsugi-inspired workshop, participants will have the opportunity to learn, create, and share. Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, highlighting the cracks instead of hiding them–embracing imperfections as part of the object’s history. This philosophy can also serve as a powerful metaphor for personal growth and healing.

Students will learn about this historic art form and how it can apply to each person. They will be guided through a modern approach, wherein they break, paint, and rebuild their own bowl, showing and creating a connection to their journey. Participants will paint their bowls and then highlight the cracks with gold glue making it unique to them. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share collectively or in small groups, conversing about how we have all been challenged in various ways, and how there is strength in the growth of the rebuild. As an art therapist, Tara offers opportunities for connection through art, relating it to self and the healing process of putting our own pieces back together.

Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock met as emerging artists in New York City, marrying in 1945 and remaining entwined personally, artistically, and professionally until Pollock’s untimely death in 1956. While Pollock’s reputation historically eclipsed Krasner’s, both artists are considered central to innovations in modern and contemporary art. Join Page Knox for an exploration of this major show at the MET (opening on October 4, 2026), which reevaluates the relationship and considers the full arc of their careers together.
