Brewery Arts CenterIt’s All About You Clay Class with Debbie Corona | Five Week Series Wednesdays
Shape a personal clay project in a series of five sessions led by instructor Debbie Corona, MFA. Each participant works on a self designed piece with guided support. Prior ceramics or clay experience is required, though attendance in earlier beginning, intermediate, or advanced classes is not necessary. If you already have a clear idea, arrive at the first session with your concept and an image for reference. If you are unsure what to make, a selection of project options will be available so you can get started with confidence. The sequence focuses on building during the first meetings, allows a break for drying, then returns for glazing. The final session features a casual critique and pickup of finished work. The cost is $150 plus a $20 lab fee due at the first class.
