These classes are a lot of fun and a great opportunity to expand your pottery skills by learning a different skillset. We will dig clay, hand coil pots, decorate with natural clay slips and minerals, visit collections of ancient pots and fire our pottery in a big outdoor fire. Come join us in one of these 2021 workshops learning traditional Southwest pottery in Arizona. These classes are outdoors and socially distanced with small class sizes for your safety and peace of mind.
I may add another workshop if these fill up early enough. Let me know if you are looking for something specific as I am open to doing a custom class.
Pottery mugs will be formed using the traditional coil and scrape method, and decorated using natural, non-toxic clays and paints. The climax of this workshop will be an outdoor, open pottery firing on the last day. November 10, 11, 12, 2023, Fort Lowell Park, Tucson, Arizona
October 20 – 24, 2023 This workshop will focus on making polychrome (3 or more colors) pottery. We will cover slipping, painting, polishing as well as digging clay, coil building and outdoor firing. This workshop will give you the skills you need to begin replicating the most advanced prehistoric pottery types in the American Southwest.
