Ceramics 2: Intermediate Handbuilding Focus

About this program

This is a satellite program operated by the ceramics staff at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, City of Burnaby's internationally renown ceramic arts facility. This activity is an opportunity for participants with previous clay experience to learn how to create more complex handbuilding forms. You are asked to bring concepts, images or designs as reference material for what projects you want to create. Ceramic artist Allysha Hurd will help participants realize their dream project. This is an intermediate level course and is not suitable for beginners. Participants will spend the first four consecutive days making clay pieces. The final session will cover glazing. The instructor will arrange a separate pick-up date for finished pieces. Clay and supplies included in course fee. Due to the design of this course, no withdrawals/refunds after Aug 10. Please note that participants will have the option of continuing to work on their pieces from 3-5pm on August 18-21, and August 27 for glazing, for an additional open workshop fee. The Ceramic Arts Programmer will contact registrants closer to the day with more information.
