Delve into the art of handbuilding in this engaging, hands-on clay class. Examine the sculptural forms on view in Collidoscope: de la Torres Brothers Retro-Perspective, then head to the studio to bring your own artistic vision to life using the slab technique, a versatile method that allows you to create a variety of functional and decorative ceramic pieces. Return at a later date to pick up your completed, fired pieces.

The Museum's highly trained staff and instructors are committed to providing students of all experience levels with a supportive and engaging experience. 

Advance Registration required. Supplies, firing fees, and transport costs are included in the class fee.
