In this weekly gathering of parents and students we will be gleaning inspiration for our projects through stories read aloud each week. Students will be guided through the basics of clay sculpture, pinch pots, coil making and more. This tactile medium will be used to help cultivate fine motor skills, hand eye coordination, attention to detail and storytelling. Parents of 3 & 4 year old students will attend together, 5 year olds may be dropped off or parents may choose to stay for the class as well. Projects will range from a small guided project completed in one day, projects that may take two or more sessions to complete. The class will touch on sculptural and functional wares over the course of our 16 weeks together.

This is a delight directed course for students who want more freedom exploring the medium of clay. Students are required to outline their own project objectives for the term. Students may check out books and magazines from our ever-growing library of Ceramic Literature, they will have free access to all the tools in the studio, including wheels, slab roller, hand building tools, etc. Students are expected to be fully responsible for set up and clean-up of their personal project as well. Project ideas: make a matching set of cups and saucers, practice throwing consistent size tumblers, sculpt garden art, create a wall hanging out of tiles. We will discuss a timeline for each project, the student will then be expected to work on their own during class. I will oversee their projects and check in with them weekly. I am on hand the entire class for questions, and inspiration.
Requirements:
This class is a good fit for students who want the freedom to explore the ceramics medium as their curiosity leads them. Students need to practice self discipline and time management and be able to work independently.
Apprenticeship with Miss Tracy is a studio-based, hands-on learning experience that can offer an invaluable window into the career of a studio ceramic artist. This age-old model of transference of craft skills, ideals, and practice will provide a unique learning opportunity for your student. In this class we will discuss in-class helper guidelines tips and techniques, studio equipment training, and chore expectations. Apprentices will be trained in all the nuances and needs of the duties that are unique to our studio as well as discussion/exposure to alternative types of studio environments.
Requirements:
Apprentices need to help in one or more of the scheduled classes being held in the ceramics studio. Apprentices may register for the Wednesday Delight Directed Ceramics class (formerly Ceramics On Your Own) for a 25% reduced fee for every hour of class they help in. Apprentices will be invited to assist in studio activities such as kiln loading and unloading as well as private use of the studio when no classes are present. As well as occasional studio work days for tidying the studio between sessions and general maintenance of shared class tools and supplies.
