What’s Included

During this 3-hour workshop, we’ll cover:

  • A demonstration and hands-on practice of essential hand-building techniques, including wedging, coiling, pinching, and slab work

  • An introduction to 3D form and functional design—create a tumbler, dish, tray, or small vessel

  • Time to decorate your pieces using a vibrant selection of colored underglazes

All materials are included. Your work will be dried, fired, and processed with care, and will be ready for local pickup or shipping within 3–4 weeks of the workshop date.

You’ll leave with a finished ceramic piece and the confidence to continue working with clay, whether at home or in future studio settings.
