February 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!

Paint Your Own Pottery

Banner for Pottery 21

Pick your bisque piece of pottery to paint.

"Bisque" is the stage that the pottery is in when it's ready to paint. We have mugs and terracotta pots for you to pick out. Each piece is $15.00 plus tax.

Introduction to Handbuilding - February

In this course, students explore the basic physical properties of clay by practicing a variety of hand-forming techniques used to create functional objects. Hand-forming techniques will include pinch pottery, slab and coil building, mold slumping, and texturizing surfaces. The objective of this class is not to make pieces to take home, but rather to learn what is possible and give students a chance to get their hands dirty and feel what it's like to work with clay. No previous experience with clay is needed for this class. This class is a prerequisite to attend open studio.

Art Under Glass Pastel Workshop with Jude Tolar, PSA, IAPS/MC*

Learn to see and render glass and other reflective subject matter. Clear glass may seem an elusive subject. Its transparent or translucent nature can, however, be translated to paper or canvas when you know how to look and see. In this workshop, you will learn to see the unique–and sometimes subtle–visual information of glass subjects. This information will help you create the forms in your artwork.

February Screenprinting with Rob Smith

Are you interested in crafting your own limited-edition prints, posters, and t-shirts? Our Introduction to Screenprinting class is perfect for you! Learn the silk screen process from start to finish, including reduction printing, resist techniques, and photo emulsion application. This style of printmaking is both fun and accessible for all skill levels. You'll receive expert guidance throughout the class and, by the end, you'll have an impressive collection of artwork to take home.
