For students that have never touched clay to those still learning the basics.

This class will cover the basic “how tos” of pottery. Students will learn the foundations of throwing, including how to confidently center, pull, and trim pots on the wheel. The class will also cover basic glazing techniques, and how to track your pieces through the studio in 4 short weeks! Ideal for people with busy summer schedules that can’t commit to a full 8 week class.

Ages: 16 and above

Class meets weekly on SUNDAYS

Note: This class will meet at the MAIN location at 3750 Canfield Street. You will only have open lab access at the same studio as your class.

Join us for clay camp, where kids learn the basics of ceramics hand-building. Campers will experiment with low-fire clay and discover ways to build functional pottery as well as creative sculpture — monsters and mugs, nature-inspired works, zoo creatures, and anything they dream up. Each day, we spend most of the time learning techniques and creating, with a quick break in the middle for snacks, outdoor activities, and games.

Come make a wall piece to cherish for years to come! In this adult cross-studio camp we will spend the first part of our week bringing our tiles to life in the ceramic studio. For these terracotta tiles we will use a variety of decorative techniques including slip, inlay, wax resist, underglaze, and additive and subtractive techniques. In the second half of the week, students will move into the metal studio learning how to forge and weld their tile’s custom frame! We’ll have two set sizes (one square, one rectangular) to make the time in the metal studio a little easier given the short time constraints. By the end of the week, you’ll have a beautiful wall hanging to show off to all your friends!

This class will take place at Groundworks Main, 3750 Canfield St. Boulder, CO
