Ceramics re: fresh
This class intends to take you from lump of mud to mug. We will cover several different slab building and wheel throwing techniques, talk tricks, and solve problems. This is the perfect course for students looking for a crash course in the basics of ceramic forms and techniques. Whether you are refreshing your dormant skills or just starting out, this class will push your creative limits and give you some new and simplified ways of working in clay.
