Ceramics: Intensive Hand-building

In this fast paced course we will focus on ceramic slab construction as a technique for creating both functional and sculptural pieces. Using clay in this way provides endless possibilities, and we will focus on experimentation.

Students will learn to mix and cast plaster to make one-piece hump, slump and press molds that may be used with their slabs and incorporated into the pieces.

No previous experience necessary, just a sense of adventure to the possibilities of clay.
