Karen's belief that everyone can create art becomes a reality in her Slab to Fab class.  Beginner through experienced handbuilders will learn and develop the skills needed to create simple forms such as dishes and platters as well as more complex pieces such as teapots.  Karen's tried and true teaching methods, encouragement and guidance combine to make Slab to Fab a fun and enjoyable experience! 

  • Clay is not included in lab fee. 

    Please Note: This class is being offered both in person and online.  Some students will participate through a Zoom meeting that is running on a laptop in the studio while the in person class is taking place. Video cameras will be used to give remote students visual access to the studio. If you are in the studio in person, you may appear on video from time to time.  By registering for this class you consent to appearing in the Zoom video.  The Zoom class sessions are not recorded and security measures are in place to prohibit anyone not registered for the class from logging into the Zoom session. 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.
