Fall 2026: Continuing Pottery
Wednesdays, 6-9PM (September 16 to November 18)
Teaching Artist: Casey Burton
TUITION: $330 members / $345 nonmembers
Intermediate Level: should be comfortable with the basics, can center, open, and pull a simple pot reliably, understand basic trimming and attaching, and generally understand how clay dries.

There will be added focus on how to create with intent. A great class for repeating as differing techniques may be approached each session. Cone 6 and 10 clay body and studio firing options will be available.
