Course description

This 10-week course will take you from absolute beginner to assured hand builder. In a friendly and supportive atmosphere, you will learn all aspects of hand building including pinching, slab building, coiling and slumping. Hand building in ceramics covers all the techniques which do not require a wheel. During the term you will learn how to design and use templates to help you build repeatable structures. You will be taught the basics of glazing and decoration enabling you to finish your pieces before taking them home.

Recruitment - if we do not recruit to our target numbers we will try to offer the courses at reduced hours. If a course does not recruit enough students to run, you will receive a refund. Please refer to the Adult Course Guide for guidance on other refund issues.
