DESCRIPTION: With guidance from Maureen Duffy Dauvigatis,, students will explore foundational ceramics techniques, with an introduction to the pottery wheel—giving each participant the opportunity to try wheel throwing and practice skills like centering, opening and pulling—as well as handbuilding methods such as pinching, slab construction, and coiling.
