Class Description
A great opportunity to learn a new skill alongside a loved one. In the past we've often had parent/child sign ups, and for this class we'd like to encourage more! This is a beginning pottery class that is open to those who also have some prior knowledge of clay. We will focus on wheel throwing, but hand building options will be available to those who are interested.
Materials List
Clothes you don't mind getting dirty, an apron if you prefer (aprons are also available in the studio), old plastic bags to cover your projects, a basic wheel throwing kit if you have one. Tools are available for use in the studio.
Minimum Age
13 and older
About the Instructor
I came to Floyd to apprentice with Silvie Granatelli after learning how to throw pots at the University of Delaware and transferring to graduate from Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. In between school and apprenticing I completed a year long residency at the Cub Creek Foundation in Appomattox, VA. I am so grateful that these experiences have led me to Floyd, where I have started my home studio and continue to build my life as an artist. In the beginning of 2019 I took over the ownership of Troika Crafts, a contemporary fine craft gallery in the heart of Downtown Floyd. Along with the gallery, I have been cemented further into the Floyd craft community when I became a new member of 16 Hands in 2022. Being surrounded by handmade craft every day is one of the best choices I've ever made for my life and I am determined to share this love with my community.
