The Basics of Pottery: A Weeklong Workshop
Session 2: August 5 – August 9
Join us for a comprehensive pottery experience spread across five 2-hour sessions. Geared towards individuals aged 15-18, this week-long workshop at The Rivet’s pottery studio explores various pottery techniques, including wheel throwing, slip casting, handbuilding, and glazing.
Throughout the class, students will not only learn the fundamentals of pottery but will also gain an introduction to The Rivet’s collaborative studio environment. As a culmination of their journey, participants will receive a Pottery Clearance, allowing them to utilize our studio during open workshop hours. Additionally, each student will be granted an access pass for extended work time on the last day of the class.
Please Note: To access The Rivet’s Pottery Studio during Open Workshop Hours, individuals must be 16 years of age or older. If under 16, participants must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or above.
