Sculptural Ceramics and Hand-building — Part-time
Course outline
Whether you're a beginner, or an intermediate level ceramicist looking to expand your skill set, this course is the perfect place to practice your sculptural ceramic techniques.
Led by an expert ceramicist, this short course will give you the opportunity to learn the principles of sculptural and fine art ceramics and to develop and extend your hand-building techniques.
Explore the endless possibilities of clay as you learn to mold, shape, and create three-dimensional works of art.
