Saturday

Experiment in Clay

by

Every Saturday we will dip our toes into the world of ceramic sculpture.
See things you might not see in a “pottery” class.
We will explore:
Expressive Portraits
Carving and Hollowing
Abstract Figurative
Musical Ceramics ~ Bells and Whistles
Relief Sculpture
IMAGINATION!
I encourage parents and Grandparents to take the class right alongside your kids. It’s a great family bonding activity.

All work will be fired and ready for pick up in the Kimball Art Center lobby 7-14 days after your class. We do not ship class work.

If you have not received an email from us after 2 weeks, please check the lobby (sometimes emails go to spam or the email used to sign up is invalid).
If artwork is not picked up after 60 days it will be recycled.
*Since artwork may look different after firing, make your pottery or sculpture recognizable by carving a signature into your piece.

Pottery Wheel Basics Workshop

by

Students will learn the essential steps to making functional forms on the pottery wheel. Examples of what can be made will be shared along with tips and tricks. Specific project ideas will be offered for those who wish to push their new skillset. Students can finish pieces made with colored slips and leave them to be fired and picked up later. Each 2-day participant can expect to have completed, with or without assistance, 2-3 thrown forms.

Large vessels in clay (HB)- 2 Day Workshop

by

Students will learn traditional hand-building techniques used in building large clay vessels. Demonstrations, visual aids, and instructor support will guide learning. A range of forms and references will be discussed along with thematic ideas. Surface techniques such as adding carvings and textures will also be explored. As forms are large, they will need time to dry before being fired in a kiln. Students can finish pieces with a clay slip prior to the drying stage.
