Learn about the fundamental skills to hand building with clay.

Demos and discussions will include how to use the pottery tools to your greatest advantage, introduce texture and design, and how to push the limitations of the clay. This course is great for any skill level from brand new to clay to the intermediate student. Materials fee will be use to provide tools for specific projects.
