August Wheel 1 Beginning Throwing Classes

Dive into the world of pottery with our Beginning Wheel Throwing class! This hands-on workshop is perfect for those new to the pottery wheel or looking to refine their basic skills. Under the guidance of a professional ceramic artist, you’ll learn the essential techniques of centering clay, pulling walls, and shaping simple forms.

September Pottery Open Studio

The goal of Open Studio is for students to work freely on their own projects within a flexible schedule. Open Studio is open to students that have completed Wheel 1 or Handbuilding. During these hours students may come in and work. This is not a led class, but a working studio where questions can be addressed to instructors and peers. We hope to create an environment where students can experiment and get creative while having a community of support!

August Pull a Print

Every Third Tuesday | Drop-In Style | 5:30pm - 7:30pm

Join us at the Prairie for Pull a Print, a free monthly screenprinting activity open to all! This come-and-go event invites community members to bring a personal item—like a shirt, tote bag, tea towel, or other flat fabric—and screenprint it with one unique design created for that month. Keep in mind the design is approximately 12 inches x 12 inches and we use dark inks to print. That means items should be lighter in color and large enough to accommodate the design.

Collage + Conversations = A Monthly Paper Art Gathering at Prairie Arts Center

Join us for Collage + Conversations, a free monthly meetup held every second Tuesday—where glue, laughter, and a little bit of magic come together. Each month, we explore a new paper art or mixed media technique while making space for creativity and connection.
