Weekly Classes

Slip Studio offers ceramic classes for students to build their skills in hand-building techniques. From beginner to more experienced artists, our students will learn and develop their skills from the ground up, mastering slab construction, coil building, and pinch pots.

Each week, we will develop new hand-building skills and explore a variety of surface decorating techniques.

Work at your own pace and bring your own creativity and inspiration. Your projects will carry over from week to week, as you learn about the different stages in pottery.
