SUMMARY:handbuilding & glazing with porcelain
DESCRIPTION:Delve into the beauty and challenges of porcelain — a material celebrated for its purity\, strength\, and translucence. This course offers a hands-on exploration of porcelain’s unique character\, guiding participants through the process of shaping delicate forms\, refining surfaces\, and applying glazes that enhance its natural elegance. You’ll learn how to work with precision and patience\, developing techniques that bring out porcelain’s luminous quality while managing its demanding nature. Through structured demonstrations and personal experimentation\, this class invites both technical mastery and artistic sensitivity. \nAll tools are provided. Some prior handbuilding or wheel experience is recommended. \nkey learning objectives:\nUnderstand the properties and behavior of porcelain in comparison to other clays.\nLearn forming and shaping techniques for thin\, refined\, and translucent pieces.\nDevelop methods for surface refinement\, including smoothing\, trimming\, and polishing.\nExplore glaze and slip applications designed to complement porcelain’s whiteness and translucency.\nGain strategies for drying and firing porcelain to minimize warping and cracking.\nCultivate an appreciation for the aesthetic and expressive potential of this refined material. \nwhat to expect:An immersive and focused course centered on both the technical discipline and artistic possibilities of porcelain. Each session combines demonstrations\, guided practice\, and open studio exploration. Participants will work on small sculptural or functional forms\, emphasizing control\, balance\, and finishing. Expect a calm\, detail-oriented studio environment that encourages patience and precision. By the end of the course\, you’ll have developed a deeper understanding of porcelain’s material beauty — and the skills to work confidently with one of ceramics’ most elegant and challenging mediums.

SUMMARY:technical ceramics for kids
DESCRIPTION:12-week technical handbuilding ceramics class plan for kids\, designed to progressively teach a new handbuilding technique each week. Each session is 2 hours long\, and the goal is for each child to learn and apply one core technique per session while completing a themed object. At the end of each session\, they receive a “Technique Badge” checkmark toward their overall progress. \nprogram goals\nDevelop core ceramic handbuilding techniques.\nEncourage creativity through themed projects.\nBuild fine motor skills\, patience\, and confidence.\nProgressively develop from simple to complex forms. \ncourse breakdown — techniques by session\nsession 1: Pinchingsession 2: Coilingsession 3: Soft Slab Constructionsession 4: Hard Slab Constructionsession 5: Scoring & Slippingsession 6: Additive Sculptingsession 7: Subtractive Carvingsession 8: Hollowing Solid Formssession 9: Balance & Compositionsession 10: Handle & Attachmentsession 11: Glaze & Underglaze Techniquessession 12: Integration of All Skills \nadditional elements:\nEach week includes a brief demo\, followed by hands-on work and sketching before forming.\nAll kids need to get an exploratory sketchbooks for ideation.\nOffer 10–15 minutes of group reflection at the end of each class to build artistic vocabulary and peer learning. \n  \n
