Instructor: Katie

Description:

It's commonly said by pottery masters that if you can make a teapot, you can make anything. Teapots require mastery of multiple skills - making the body, lid, spout and handle all in once cohesive piece - all while balancing art and function. Talk about intimidating!

If you've dabbling with expanding your skills want to build more confidence, this is the class for you! Join Katie as she makes this historically intimidating project approachable and fun. 

You'll learn skills that go past this specific teapot project, and give you the confidence to push your handbuilding projects to the next level.

If time allows, class will expand past teapots to include matching cups, saucers and other cute tea accessories. 

Am I ready for this class?

This class uses a combination of wheel and handbuilding techniques. We recommend you be able to comfortably throw a cylinder with 1 - 2 lbs of clay. If you've taken our level 2 class, you'll be fine.

Includes: all clay, tools, bisque and glaze firings (No surprise gotchas...if you need it to make a teapot, it's included.)

Who can participate: While we're big kids at heart, Half Moon isn't quite set up for kids' classes quite yet. We're hoping to have some kid-friendly offerings later this year. For safety reasons, our classes are currently open to artists age 15 and older.
