Join Gord and learn his techniques and shortcuts for creating teapots with a distinctive human element. This hands-on experience will allow you to mold, sculpt, and decorate a unique ceramic piece under expert instruction.

Hand-building is a ceramics technique that enables the creation of forms using only your hands, without the need for a throwing wheel. Historically, before the invention of the wheel, this was the sole method for crafting both functional and artistic ceramic forms. This workshop offers a wonderful opportunity to explore a traditional and expressive ceramic art form.

Class fees include the use of tools, equipment, firings and glazes. Students can purchase clay from the Centre ($35/bag).
