You will learn about clay's many possibilities and potential as a sculptural material. There will be demonstrations of how to use technique and you will receive guidance throughout the building process.

You will learn how to transform an idea into practice and build, shape, dry, and glaze your piece correctly. There will be time for you to engage with your sculpture and get individual feedback on your process during all classes. By the end of the course we will fire the works so you can bring home your finished ceramic sculptures or designs.
