This will be a fun and interactive class. Previous clay experience would be helpful for this class, but it is possible to be a beginner.

The first class will be a short hour to go over the project and discuss how the class will unfold. Students will leave that first class thinking of how they will want their project to “look”. The second-fourth sessions will be construction of the forms. The fifth week will be glazing. An optional session will be held 2 weeks after the final session for presentation and pick up. Otherwise all projects will be ready for pick up 2 weeks after the final session. Come experience something new!

For questions or to register, please contact edco-ord@oacarts.org or call 507-451-0533.
