This fall, we’ll explore both functional and decorative forms that capture the essence of autumn-think lidded jars, serving platters, soup bowls, generously sized mugs for those chilly days ahead. Our surface decoration and glazing techniques will be inspired by rustic texture and autumnal colors. We’ll incorporate handbuilding techniques to add variety and interest to your pieces. While prior experience on the wheel (wedging, centering, pulling walls) is required, no handbuilding experience is necessary.
