Learn to refine your pottery skills by making functionally sound, aesthetically pleasing pitchers in this class. We will explore wheel-thrown pitcher forms as well as a hand-built pitcher form or two. Participants will learn the anatomy of a well-made pitcher then explore pitcher form variations through darting, pinching, adding slab-made spouts, joining two thrown pieces, and using various surface decoration techniques. Participants must have experience throwing on the wheel, be able to center at least 3 pounds of clay, and to pull a cylinder with walls of a consistent thickness and a level rim. Out-of-class work will be assigned so your access to a wheel between classes is essential. No class scheduled for April 30 to allow firing of fully dried work prior to glazing on May 7. $140/Participant + $35/Materials.
