Week 1: Intro to Handbuilding

Learn the fundamentals of working with clay by hand while creating your own mugs and travel tumblers.

Then spend 1 hour handbuilding plates to expand your skills.

Week 3: Trimming & Attaching

Spend a hour returning to the wheel to trim and refine your pieces, learning how to create clean, professional finishes.

You’ll also spend a hour handbuilding additional pieces and attachments.

Week 4: Glazing

Bring your work to life by glazing your pieces. You’ll choose from a selection of beautiful studio glazes, and your pieces will be kiln-fired and ready for pickup in a few weeks.

What’s Included:

• All clay, glazes, tools, and firings

• Step-by-step instruction in a fun group setting

• Keep up to 4 pieces to glaze and keep
