In this session, we will dive deeper into the world of possibilities with handbuilding. We will explore more complex handbuilt forms and techniques, while understanding the implications of building larger forms with clay.

We will look at how to incorporate other materials into our projects such as wooden details, cordage, and even light fixtures.

Class projects will include lanterns, hanging pendant decorations, and/or larger handbuilt sculptures.

FAQ: 

  • Q: Can I make up a class?

  • A: Unfortunately no. We recommend doing everything you can to make each class, but if you miss one you do have open studio time the rest of the week to come and play.

  • Q: When are Open Studio Hours?

  • A: Student Open Studio Hours are: Thursday-Monday 12 PM-7 PM. Hours are subject to change during workshop days, but 7 days notice will be given to students.

  • Q: What’s the age limit for the class?

  • A: 16. Anyone 16 or older may be present without a guardian as long as their guardian has signed the student agreement for them.

  • Q: Can I bring my child?

  • A: Sadly not to the class. This said we welcome kids during open studio hours - parents can simply pay a child day pass fee ($15) for their child and come and go from the studio for the duration of that day.

  • Q: What if I, another student or the teacher test positive for COVID?

  • A:

    • If you test positive, we apologize but there is no refund or class make up session we can offer.

    • If another student tests positive and let’s us know, we will inform the class and it will be up to you to decide whether you feel comfortable returning.

    • If one of our teachers tests positive and needs to cancel class 1 or 2 times we will refund you a proportionate amount ($30 per class). If further sessions must be cancelled we will offer you credit towards another class session.
