Beginning Hand Building 1 | Introduction to Hand Building (4-Week Session)
Our Beginning Hand Building class explores the fundamentals of clay shaping through pinch pots, coil, and slab techniques. You'll learn how to work with clay through its various stages; from shaping raw clay, to bisque, to applying the glaze for the final glaze firing.
This class is designed for beginners and anyone eager to reconnect with clay.
Hand building offers a quicker path to bringing your artistic visions to life, with a gentler learning curve compared to wheel throwing.
This one-month course consists of 4 two-hour weekly sessions.
• Class fees cover approximately 12 pounds of clay, along with glazes and firing services*. Additional clay can be purchased through your teacher during class hours only. (*additional fees apply to pieces over 6” in length, width, or height)
• Studio tools will be provided during the class. Tools can be purchased at the studio for personal use during open studio time. Students are welcome to bring their own tools for their personal use.
• Open studio operates seven days a week, from Monday to Sunday, between the hours of 9am to 9pm, except during scheduled classes. Additionally, there will be a one-hour closure prior to and after each class.
• We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting dirty and closed-toe shoes for safety.
• Students are encouraged to bring their own aprons and hand towels to class.
• Students are encouraged to make the most of open studio time between classes for practice.
This class is designed for adults. Minors ages 14-17 are welcome to participate with a completed waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian. Please email info@makersandclay.com if you are interested in enrolling a 14-17 year old in class.
