General Pottery Class

This is a hand building, glazing, slip casting, and wheel throwing class 2 1/2 hours long once a week.  There is a limit of 6 students in the class.  The class will start on a Tuesday in June at 1:00 pm at 4 Brookside Ave, Greenfield, MA.  Past experience has show that pottery students generally think of pottery classes in terms of wheel throwing.  My experience with classes over many years is the following.  Students generally find wheel throwing to be hard, aggravating, and impossible to do with with long fingernails.  It becomes somewhat frustrating when your pot goes flying across the studio onto the floor.  Anyway we used to have six wheels for throwing.  Eventually it ended up that everyone was doing hand building and slip casting and loved it.  So we now have three wheels in the studio and a lot of other equipment used in hand building and slip casting.  You can send me an email if you would like to come and see the studio and talk about the classes.  My email is donaldjoy@joyceramics.com.  My phone number is 413-768-1229.  I suggest sending a message to my phone or using email.  Depending on interest we will create further sections of this class so that everyone will be able to attend.  Some of those sections can be in the evening.  We are not able to have weekend classes since we attend many craft fairs selling our pottery.

If you want to set up a class section for you and a set of friends we can do that, you would need 5 friends and yourself.
