WorkshopSF is excited to partner with The Clayroom to bring you this Friday night class that introduces you to the world of pottery and ceramics! Part technical instruction, and part creative / social hang, this class will get your hands good and dirty as professional ceramicist Sarah Duyer shows you how to transform a big ball of clay into fun (and functional) ceramic objects! Think cups, mugs, boxes, tiles, or even small plant holders! You’ll learn specific handbuilding techniques such as slab and coiling in order to shape and sculpt your clay. You will also learn to use slipping and scoring techniques, as well as a simple set of tools, to create texture and underglazes for your more decorative surfaces. Once complete, your clay masterpieces will be glazed, fired, finished, and ready for pick up at a later date. Each student will receive enough clay for two finished projects!
Supplies Needed: None. We supply all materials and tools, including aprons, but please wear clothes you wouldn’t mind getting dusty!
