Wood-fire Ceramics Classes with ChasArts
Come play in the clay and learn how to throw and hand-build. Students will learn wheel throwing techniques; glazing and decorating pots( low fire). During each 6-week session you can expect to make 10 quality pieces, fired in electric kiln, pit kiln, and wood kiln.
Class includes all tools, glaze material and one 25 lb bag of clay. More clay can be purchased from the storeroom. As soon as work is finished we will begin wood firing on Fridays and Saturdays. Everyone will sign up for shifts to tend the kiln.
Cost $435, paid to the instructor
