This listing is for the Wednesday 6:30-9:30pm class. This class runs for eight consecutive weeks during the Fall term which runs from September 8th until November 1st.
This class is good for students who are not brand new to pottery but who do not feel ready for intermediate to advanced classes yet. In this class Pete will explore more ways to foster growth and increase the scale and efficiency of your current throwing ability. Each week students will be shown how to produce a different form and all of these demonstrations will be fired and finished during the term allowing students to see the entire process from forming to firing.
The studio has limited tools and tiles for community use, feel free to purchase your own bat system and bring your own tools which you can store at the studio. Please note that clay and firing fees are not included in the cost of class and must be purchased separately at an additional cost. Open studio is free and unlimited and each student is issued their own private shelf to store works in progress and tools for the duration of the class.
