Over six weeks, students build confidence with clay through a supportive, hands-on handbuilding series. Each class includes guided demos, step-by-step practice, and plenty of time for individual coaching. Students learn essential techniques like slab building, coil building, and joining, along with the details that make pieces strong and finished, including shaping, refining edges, managing drying, and basic surface design. The final weeks focus on finishing and glazing so each piece feels complete and ready to use. Students leave with new skills, creative momentum, and a small collection of handmade work that reflects their own style.
