We will experiment with the handbuilding methods of coils, slabs, pinching, and everything in between. This class will allow for the exploration of functional and sculptural ideas alike. All skills are welcome, so join in and let’s play with clay.

Purchase clay prior to your first class by calling 727-821-7162 (Thurs-Sat 10am-5pm)

Speckled Brownstone – Made by Highwater Clays. Fires to a light brown in color with small black specs. Great for throwing on the potter’s wheel. Can be fired to Cone 6. Cost is $20, $21.40 after tax.
