COURSE DESCRIPTION

In the course, you will be given 0,5 kg of clay in front of you and you can form your objects from it!

During the first session, we will teach a couple of hand-building techniques to support the making of small objects. You can form clay by hand building anything and everything else, whatever you want. You can come to the course regardless of your level, whether you are a first-timer or an experienced creator. We do not use the potter’s wheel in the course.

In the second session, you will get to try glazing for your work! You can choose between many lovely colors and different techniques. At the beginning of the class, we will tell you everything you need about glazing.

The price of the course includes two teaching sessions, materials, VAT 24%, and raw and glazing firings by us.
The prize is 75 euros. Course registration is binding. Cancelation less than 24 hours before the course will not be refunded. 10 participants are accepted for the course.

After the work comes out of the kiln, the finished work can be picked up from the studio on Friday 25.05 from 12:00 to 18:00. Please come pick up your work then.
Note! If you suffer from asthma or other sensitivities, be prepared for clay dust to be released into the room.

The course is held in English at Studio Villa Filanda Antonini. Via Montegrappa 25, 31020 Lancenigo, Treviso.
