Next Level Throwing
In this class we will start with where you are in your throwing journey and go to the next level. If your goal is to make pots you like better than the ones you are making now, this is the place to
be. We will work on technical skills, but also on good form and an expanded repertoire of glaze ideas. This class is meant for people who have taken at least one throwing class. Instructor Dottie Baker will guide you through this six-week course.

Introduction to Glazes
In this class, the mystery of glazes will begin to clear. You will discover what each of LPCCA’s glaze materials looks like when fired to cone 6, then learn a simple method of knowing what each contributes to a glaze, and finally invent your own glaze. We will do all this without the usual deep dive into glaze chemistry. If you can recognize the pattern of a short sequence of numbers and letters (ABC123), you can do this class. Whether you just want to gain more understanding of the glazes you already use, or actually invent your own colors and textures for the surface of your pots, this class will help.
New Class Dates Coming Soon!
