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 ext. 2311 Please note that we are open Wed-Sat 10am-5pm

Phoenix – Made by Highwater Clays. Fires to a light tan in color. Great clay for beginners. Smooth enough to throw on the potter’s wheel, but strong enough to withstand most hand-building techniques. Can be fired from Cone 6 to Cone 10.

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.

Held at the Morean Center for Clay
420 22nd Street South, St. Petersburg, FL 33712
