WHAT TO EXPECT

Welcome to Continuing Ceramics, a recurring monthly pottery class that introduces different projects, forms, and techniques to strengthen your skills as you create a unique body of work.

This class is perfect for ceramicists who've already taken our Beginner Pottery class or a similar introductory class at another studio. Our monthly projects are approachable for all skill levels, so whether you're a beginner or an experienced potter, you'll learn something new and finish with a beautiful collection of pieces.

Throughout Continuing Ceramics, you’ll develop your creative problem solving, build muscle memory, and grow your confidence and abilities to bring your dream projects to life. 

Like any art form, consistent practice is key. That's why this class also includes access to our Open Studio time on Thursdays. Open Studio is a great place to practice what you learned in class, get extra feedback from our teachers, and meet fellow students.

Upcoming Themes

July - Exaggerated Forms

Vases, Pitchers, Bottles

We'll focus on techniques used to create different functional forms such as vases, decanters, pitchers, and bottles. Making these exaggerated forms will expand your skills with tools and your control over the clay.

August - Outdoor Pottery

Watering cans, planter pots, garden decorations

We'll create pottery that can be incorporated into gardens and other outdoor spaces. You'll combine handbuilding and wheel-throwing techniques while incorporating natural textures and patterns into your work.

October & November - Dinner Sets

plates, bowls, cups

During this two-month theme, we'll design and create a cohesive dinner set, including plates, bowls, and cups. This theme will help you refine your precision and consistency while throwing multiple matching forms.

December - Specialized Bowls

Ramen & soup bowls, small saucers

We'll end the year focusing on specific types of bowls used for serving ramen, soup, and phở. You'll learn how to get the most volume out of your bowls and alter the forms to improve their functionality.
