Students will create functional and non-functional pottery, using stoneware and porcelain clays. The firing will be done using the electric and gas kilns. Glazing will be done twice during the class. The glazing will be completed using the dipping, pouring, and brushing techniques with stoneware glazes.

Need some inspiration again? Let’s fill your well with inspiration! This is a class that will challenge you to try new things, explore new techniques, and be willing to “get messy” with your creative process. Rather than a traditional workshop where you work on one piece, or an overview of genre, this class will split our time between the examination of specific writing techniques, and then trying them by literally writing and sharing in session. By studying examples of effective writing in multiple styles (and trying to emulate them ourselves!) students will take with them a renewed sense of creativity and powerful skills to apply to their larger projects. No class meeting 11/26. T 6:00-7:30pm 10/22-12/10 7 Classes CAE D1 Hawkins $79 CRAFTS INTRO TO CRICUT DESIGN SPACE You have a Cricut now what?
