Wheel Throwing & Much More!
Summer Class | This course is completed
This class will boost your confidence as you learn new throwing and handbuilding techniques, and skills that will eliminate trouble spots. We will also explore different pottery forms and special decorative techniques that will take your work to new levels. There will be weekly demos and lots of one on one attention. Questions are required.
- Clay is not included in fee.
This class is planned as an in person class and we expect that it will run the full semester in person. However, there is an ongoing need to adhere to guidance and safety practices in order to safely manage the COVID-19 situation. The guidelines from state government and public health authorities change as time progresses and the CAC may need to make adjustments accordingly. It is possible that this class will transition to an online format at some point during the semester. In this case, tuition refunds will not be issued unless the CAC is unable to provide the same number of class sessions as initially planned either in person or in a remote format.- Students who wish to fire work in the soda kiln and are currently registered in a class that is not soda kiln specific can do so for an additional $20 fee/semester. Only available to students who have previously taken a soda kiln specific class or workshop at the CAC. Please call or stop by the office to sign up.
- Please bring basic clay tools, available for purchase at the CAC.

I am an artist; it’s not what I do, but simply who I am and always have been. I started with two dimensional art, and still work as a graphic designer, then I touched clay! I molded, I pinched, threw, manipulated, wedged, pressed, paddled, assembled . . . clay. I loved the feel of it. The simplicity. Clay drew me in and has yet to let me go! I embraced the joy and therapy of “playing in clay.” My work has often been described as animated. I attribute the “life” in my pieces to my ability to keep it fun and playfully loose.
I now enjoy sharing that joy of “playing in clay” through teaching at The Community Art Center.
