Start Date:

  • Tuesday, January 6th 6PM - 8PM with Tennessy Elledge

(same time every week for 6 weeks)

In this hands-on class, students will learn foundational sculpting techniques including proportion, texture, and surface detailing. We’ll study animal anatomy and gesture, and each student will bring a unique creature to life from sketch to finished sculpture, and then (if you're feeling eager) perhaps to something functional like teacher Tennessy's famous Toad Toilet Roll Dispenser. This class is perfect for both beginners and intermediate students ready to expand their skills in three-dimensional form.

    • Half bag of clay free! (12.5lbs block)

    • Firing/baking of your pottery

    • Glazes/materials

    • Use of studio machinery, tools and equipment

    • 18"x14"x15" personal shelf storage space at CLAYFOLK

    • Access to Open Studio Hours (Thursday-Monday 9 AM-8 PM). This access is unlimited during the 6-week course!

    • 2 hour class session in studio, meet new people, and ask your instructor questions while practicing!

Projects include:  Animals of all kinds

Follow-up class suggestions: Mixed Level Handbuilding, Large Coil or wait for the next level class to become available.

FAQ: 

  • Q: Can I make up a class?

  • A: No, but do not fear, your instructors will be around during open studio time to help catch you up.

  • Q: When are Open Studio Hours?

  • A: Thursday-Monday from 12PM -7PM. Hours are subject to change during workshop days, but 7 days notice will be given to students.

  • Q: What’s the age limit for the class?

  • A: 16. Anyone 16 or older may be present without a guardian as long as their guardian has signed the student agreement for them.

  • Q: Can I bring my child?

  • A: Sadly not to the class. This said we welcome kids during open studio hours - parents can simply pay a child day pass fee ($15) for their child and come and go from the studio for the duration of that day.
