Apprenticeship

Learn the craft of ceramics and pottery from expert instructors. Craft clay into useful earthenware and art. Develop the foundations of ceramics through the following:

Craftsmanship & Form Produce handmade crafts. Make your own bowls, cups, art, and more for your home. Master traditional pottery styles to integrate into your own works.

Art & Design Study design in three dimensions. Explore the basics of pottery, sculpture and expressive forms. Hand-paint and decorate, elevating what you craft. Develop your personal style as an artist. 

Traditional & Modern Methods Gain a holistic understanding of traditional and modern pottery techniques. Coil, sculpt, and spin on the wheel. Fire your works by different methods: from our electric kiln to outdoor pit fires.
