Session 1:
Create two pinch pots while learning—or refining—pinch-pot techniques. This session focuses primarily on working with your hands and clay, with tools used as needed. Optional stamp designs will be available.
Session 2:
Glaze your finished pieces to make them both glossy and functional.
This course is:
- Ideal for beginners looking to explore hand-building and gain a feel for working with clay
- Perfect for returning students who wish to refine their skills and explore the beauty and details of the pinch technique
- An opportunity to experience how clay subtly moves and responds when shaped by hand
- A relaxing, grounding way to slow down and reconnect
