  • Week of March 7th- Glaze Demo & Consultation: Date/Time TBD

Workshop Time: 1–4pm

Description: Create your own ceramic tableware set with Clay Studio’s Executive Director and experienced potter, Patrick Hall. This workshop will concentrate on designing and building a coordinated place-setting for four- including a dinner plate, salad plate, soup bowl, and mug or tumbler. The course will begin with an Inspiration Meeting on Thursday 2/17, where students will be encouraged to research and sketch their set in advance. The following week class will meet Monday-Friday, 1-4PM, where Patrick will lead students in creating simple, sophisticated tableware pieces on the wheel. Those who prefer to handbuild are also welcome.

Once all students’ work has been bisqued, Patrick will lead a Glaze Demo and Consultation the week of March 7th. The date and time of the Glaze Demo are TBD and will depend on when the class work is ready to be glazed.

*This course is for students with basic clay fabrication skills, including centering, pulling up a cylinder and trimming, and/or previous handbuilding experience with coiling and slab-building.

Drop-in open studio hours will be available for this course: Students may use up to 9 additional studio hours to finish and glaze their work. Students are welcome to come in to Clay Studio during our Open Studio Lab hours to work independently on Sundays from 10AM-2PM, Tuesdays from 1PM-8PM, and Thursdays from 1PM-4PM. Please note that Open Studio Lab hours are subject to change.
