Overview
POTTERY DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN
WEDNESDAY 6:30 – 9:00 PM I APR 10 – JUN 12 I (10 WKS)
INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED with Beth Lindenberger – This class starts with hand-building projects (coil, slab, and pinch) for the less experienced and is designed for students to learn techniques while making fun and functional objects. More experienced students may work on the wheel, developing their clay working skills, and are encouraged to bring their own ideas to incorporate into class projects while working under the direction of the instructor, learning forming, glazing, decorating, and firing processes. A mixed class, it creates a great environment for learning from a group working with a variety of skills from beginning to advanced, covering various techniques in each session. Projects are appropriate for students at multiple levels and change each session. Student preparation and motivation are highly encouraged! *Glazing and firing fee included in tuition. Students MUST purchase clay from CVAC on the first day, and throughout the 10 weeks as needed. Clay is $10 for 12lbs/$20 for 25lbs. M $178 NM $203
* Pottery classes are for Adults 18 and older only. Students must follow directions and work independently, coming in prepared for the assigned projects.
This class is education-based, and the priority is firing and completing work made in class. Work made outside of class cannot be accommodated due to the additional studio and material expenses not covered in class fees.
Missed classes cannot be made up.
