Join us for an exciting 16-week semester where you'll dive into the wonderful world of clay! Get ready to roll up your sleeves and acquire hands-on skills that will unleash your creativity. Throughout this immersive journey, we'll guide you through essential techniques such as wedging, reclaiming, wheel throwing, and hand-building. You'll also have the opportunity to explore various techniques and forms that will ignite your imagination.

Our comprehensive curriculum goes beyond just working with clay. We'll teach you the language of ceramics, equip you with the essential tools of the trade, and enlighten you on the art of studio management. We aim to empower you with a holistic understanding of the medium, ensuring you become a well-rounded artist.

We believe in quality education and personalized attention at the Foothills Arts Center. That's why our class sizes are deliberately kept small, allowing for an intimate and enriching learning environment. With a generous sixteen-week semester, you'll have ample time to absorb knowledge, experiment, and truly immerse yourself in the craft. Get ready to unleash your creativity, explore endless possibilities, and embark on a transformative journey with clay!

This program is a prerequisite for our Advanced Clay & Clayworks Open Studio programs, setting the foundation for success in our studio environment.
