Designed to take a beginner to the next step, work with clay using hand building and wheel throwing techniques. Learn about layering slips with glazes as an exciting way to complete simple forms. Learn how to throw tall cylinders and create volume along with the knowledge to combine hand-built parts to enhance the wheel thrown forms. Enhance forms with surface decoration techniques like slip trailing and sgraffito.

  • Students must purchase ceramics tool kits in advance.
  • Students may only work with and fire clay purchased from ALLI. Your teacher will review clay types on the first day of class, and you will be able to purchase at that time. Clay is $40 per bag.
Tischler, Amy

Dare to be MUDDY! In my classes you'll get your hands dirty and make personalized gifts and handmade/ food-safe dinnerware for your home while advancing your skills in ceramics. I studied at Alfred University School of Art and Design, where I received my BFA in ceramics. I earned my Masters in Teaching at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). I developed those skills even further as a production potter in Manhattan. I've been with the Art League of LI for 15+ years. I started out as a student taking the portfolio workshop, taught classes for the Summer Art Adventure in many different mediums, and now teach Ceramics. My work focuses on enhancing the ordinary, using smooth lines to imbue utilitarian objects with a new vibrancy.
