experimentation of materials as well as to challenge conceptual building skills while

as developed as advanced watercolor. Become more confident as we study the elements of
painting through new uses of the medium.

drawing, and printmaking. Classes are generally 6-week sessions, meeting once
a week for a 3-hour class period. Our classroom is equipped with 8 wheels (5
Campbell's Flying Dragon Standard, 3 Thomas Stuart Classic), a Northstar Slab
Roller, a wall-mounted extruder, two large canvas-covered tables, bats, ware
boards, miscellaneous tools, and plenty of shelf space to store class work. Class

noted), shop glazes and slips, all bisque and glaze firings, and open studio hours
(Tuesday- Saturday 11am- 6pm and Thursdays 11am- 9pm). New students
receive a complimentary pottery tool kit with their first ceramics class.
