Learn the process of creating colorful pottery from start to finish in this New York ceramics course. This class is an introduction to color in clay and includes both wheel and handbuilding techniques taught over eight consecutive sessions.
This pottery class is welcome to all levels, from experienced potters to beginners ready to jump into a new hobby. Beyond the technical skills, this class is all about discovering the joy of color in clay. You'll experiment with different hues, patterns, and textures, bringing your own creative touch to every piece you make. With plenty of hands-on practice and guidance, you'll leave with vibrant, one-of-a-kind pottery—and the confidence to keep creating long after the course ends!
