Pottery and Wheel-Throwing: Section 01   

Section 01 is designed for beginning students who are interested in a survey of ceramic techniques. You will learn a variety of hand-building methods, while also being introduced to the pottery wheel. Our guided projects will range from functional objects to whimsical sculptures. You'll learn about applying dozens of decorative accents, and be given the freedom to explore your own self-expression. In Section 02, for returning students or those with ceramics experience, the instructor will troubleshoot skills needing improvement, lead class exercises, demonstrate advanced techniques, and provide inspiration for further exploration. Final pieces may not be fired in time for the last session; students will be asked to pick up finished pieces at a later date.
