-- MOST OF OUR CLASSES ARE ON A ROLLING START...PICK YOUR FIRST DAY --
MORNING & EVENING POTTERY From raw clay to a finished piece! Handbuilding, or wheel. For just a one time experiential wheel class select private lessons (please note: this does not guarantee a piece).
All of our classes accommodate beginners unless indicated in the description. For all approaches to pottery, hand building and wheel work, there are several stages to a finished piece. We can arrange for only wheel work, but it will be purely experiential for the first two or three classes. Classes are filling up, please call if you don't see a time that works for your schedule. We also offer Pottery workshops Handles....Lids...minis....carving....big pots... call for our schedule.
EXPERIENTIAL WHEEL CLASS Want to try the wheel?
For Wheel:We will take you through the steps of throwing without the emphasis on a product. If wheel is not your thing, we can walk you through hand-building a piece OR you learn how to make 3D figures with a beginner lesson in sculpting. Cost is $75/hour per person. Call to book at least one week in advance. 203.814.6873
PAINTING & DRAWING 6 week course for all levels. Loosen up and find your style. In the first weeks, you'll experiment with drawing techniques, focus on composition, and work toward either painting or drawing as a final product. Many of the students in this class continue on in the next session. If you've wanted to try drawing, and/or painting, this is a wonderful place to start! If you're already an artist, COME AND PLAY WITH US!
