A beginner pottery class that focuses on slab bowls will teach you the basics of slab-building with clay.
 
Once you've created your slab bowl you'll let it dry to a leather-hard stage and our Studio Manager will fire it in the kiln. You will select a glaze for your finished vessel that will be actualized by Studio Manager, who will contact you when your pot is complete for pick-up.

This class if part of our Summer Beginner's Series; visit our Pottery Studio webpage to see all the options this Summer!
