Beginner Hand-building

Our hand-building classes welcomes a wide mixed age group as we goes over fundamental hand-building techniques such as:

  • Slab mugs

  • Coil pots

  • Plates with press patterns.

  • Mushrooms, gnomes and sculptures!

Hand-building with clay is a wonderful opportunity to slow down and expand your skills as a potter. Hand-building opens a whole new world of possibilities with clay that it often overlooked.

Beginners and repeat students alike are welcomed. Whether you have never pottery before or are familiar, or you want to simply hand-build your own project with instructor guidance then this class is for you!
