$200 for nonmembers, $190 for members (use code Member10 at checkout)
For students who have taken beginning pottery, and want to take on methods for creating bigger vessels like vases, mixing bowls, and more! Teaching resident artist Ethan Arias will take students through his techniques for handling larger amounts of clay to create forms that are bigger and taller! This will include methods like centering larger pieces to throw larger from the start, and even throwing coils to extend the reach of your starting vessel. Learning to throw large is excellent skill building for any potter looking to up their game and polish their skills. Techniques learned will be helpful for throwing at large scale, but will also help grow understanding of thrown pottery as a whole.
Included in class fee:
- First 2 bags of clay
- Firing Fees (cone 10 reduction) for works created in class are covered in the tuition fee.
- Access to work in studio outside of class meeting time, by appointment
Access outside of class time will be restricted to business hours when other classes and programs are not in session in the classroom, and additional monitored times. Your instructor will orient you on how to reserve open studio access on the first day of class.
We ask that students comply with all of our health and safety guidelines. A student waiver will be issued during the first class meeting with the most up-to-date guidance.
