June Continuing Handbuilding

Expand on the skills you learned in our Beginning Handbuilding class and discover what else is possible with clay. Lessons will vary but may include things like building larger forms, surface decoration and glazing ideas, or sculpture. Share your ideas with your teacher and they'll help you bring them to life.

We recommend having at least two months of handbuilding experience before taking this class; this could mean taking Beginning Handbuilding twice, or one month of Beginning Handbuilding plus one month of independent practice as a member.
