Curious about hand building? Looking for a creative outlet where you can explore, experiment, and surprise yourself? Hand Building with Liz is a well-rounded, friendly class for all levels that focuses on building confidence and skill through hand building techniques—with a gentle introduction to the wheel along the way.
We’ll start with the essentials: learning to shape clay by hand through pinch pots, moving into structured projects using the slab roller, extruder, molds, and other studio tools. As the session progresses, you’ll explore combining these forms, experiment with surface design, and even try your hand at wheel throwing if you’re interested.
This class is about more than just technique—it’s about helping students feel proud of what they create. You’ll leave with a variety of functional and decorative pieces and a better understanding of how to work with clay from start to finish.
Whether you’re brand new to pottery or building on what you learned in a previous session, this is a great space to keep learning and growing. Liz’s supportive and engaging approach will guide you every step of the way.
