SUMMER 2: JULY 14 - AUGUST 31

Instructional Dates:
7/16, 7/23, 7/30, 8/6, 8/13, 8/20

Time: 6 PM - 9 PM

Class Description:

Build a foundation in all aspects of pottery, developing skills and techniques for making functional pieces you can use and enjoy. Demos and hands-on instruction in throwing, trimming and glazing will allow students of all levels to develop and refine their work. Students will develop their ability to see, explore ideas and create with curiosity. This is primarily a class for those developing wheel throwing skills but several projects will incorporate hand building techniques. Come and discover the possibilities with clay!

Required Supplies:

  • Clay: Available for purchase using the add-on below or in the studio on arrival. No outside clay is allowed.

  • Tools: Available for purchase using the add-on below or in the studio. We also have a limited supply of shared tools.

Weekly open studio hours:

  • Fridays 6 - 9 PM

  • Saturdays 1 - 4 PM

  • Sundays 1 - 4 PM

  • Mondays 3 - 6 PM

Teacher Info:

Clare Farrow is a Philadelphia-based ceramic artist with 15 years of experience. Her work focuses on wheel-thrown and wood-fired pottery, where she explores the dynamic interplay between meticulously crafted forms and the spontaneous, unpredictable surfaces created by the kiln’s atmosphere. Clare’s practice is deeply rooted in community: from shapes inspired by fellow artists to use of materials sourced from friends to the collaborative nature of kiln stoking, each piece is a reflection of the collective influence and support that shape her artistic journey.
