Course Description

Did you know you can hand build and fire your glazed pottery in the electric kiln so they mimic pots fired in the gas kiln? But would you also like to learn how to get great results on pots you actually fire in the gas kiln?

Well here's your chance! Join Barbara Hanselman for the first 4 weeks of class and Nadia W. Bond for the second 4 weeks as they take you through the basic steps to accomplish both of these feats!

Special Notes

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 Note: 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.

18” - 24" handle-free wood rolling pin.

Barbara Hanselman

Barbara Hanselman's Website I started my adventure in clay 20 years ago and am recognized by my hand built whimsical pots and terra sigillata enhanced ceramic clay beads. My clay work has been acknowledged with awards at Strictly Functional Pottery Nationals and the Pennsylvania Guild Exhibitions in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and at several area art center shows. Lark Books chose two of my bowls to appear in their 2003 publication, "500 Bowls" and selected my transfer printed bowl, “What’s in a Word…” to appear in their 2006 publication, “Image Transfer on Clay.” My classes/workshops on Clay Hand Building Techniques, Clay Rattles and Making Beads in Clay are offered at local art centers and my clay work is available for purchase online as well as through select galleries.

Nadia Bond

Nadia's Webpage Working as an Interior Designer for more than thirty years has given me a love of grace and line that I try to incorporate into the pieces that I throw. I consider myself not just a potter, but an artist trying to find beauty in the clay. Recently, I have been experimenting with combining my love of hand building, and sculpting clay with the pieces I throw on the wheel. This has taken my work into a new and exciting level of design. I believe we never stop learning. Everyday is a new day to explore the clay, and learn how far we can push and pull our way to a beautiful work of art.
