For the first part of this class (30 mins), all participants will gain an understanding of:

  • the organizational system in the ceramics studio
  • what equipment is available to use - slab roller, wheels, bats, community tools, molds, kilns, mixer, grinder, extruder
  • member responsibilities 
  • studio etiquette

If you are an experienced ceramicist you are considered certified to use the studio at this point.

Beginners must stay for the next 30 minutes to 1hr to gain an introduction to:

  • clay bodies 
  • glazing - including underglazes, stains and slips
  • forming - including using the wheel, slab roller or the coil technique
  • texturing - sources of supplies
  • local educational resources (this is not a hands-on class)
  • ceramic tools and clay suppliers

Members must take this class prior to using the Ceramics Studio. 

Sid will not provide hands-on instruction but will give the resources so that you may start on your ceramics journey! It is essential that all members take this certification prior to using the studio.
