76 McCheek's Academy

In the Five Week Adult Clay Classes we work with handbuilding and slip casting in clay.We start the first session by Carole giving instruction on making a planter and work through the whole process of making, texturizing and glazing which enables the students to create their own projects in the following weeks.

You will work from slabs of clay, soft clay for pinch pots or coils and slip casting using some of my vintage plaster molds. As students, you direct what you want to make and we facilitate that! We fire everything for you in our kiln. The classes are informal and set in McCheek's studio.

Full instruction is given and no experience is necessary.
