Courses run for periods of 4 to 10 weeks, meeting once a week for 2
to 4 hours, and beginning throughout the year. The courses are designed
to take the participants through the full range of hand building and decoration
techniques used in ceramics development. The courses begin with a focus
on modeling and they lead up to the development of original work by the
individual.
Specifically, you (the student-artist) will be creating your own
ceramic artwork, which will be kiln-fired, and will result in a completed
work for you to keep.
The cost of the course includes all materials and supplies.
- Novice Courses are designed to help students develop
the essential skills in ceramics: structuring, modeling, and designing.
- Intermediate Courses are intended for those students
with prior experience who would like to develop advanced techniques and
begin to work on their own projects.
- Children’s Courses are geared towards young people
aged 6 to 16. These fun and educational lessons are a worthwhile extracurricular
experience, helping students develop creative skills they may not be introduced
to in school.
- Private Individual and Group Courses can be arranged
at any time throughout the year for individuals or groups who cannot meet
for the other courses or require special instruction.
