Cely’s House Pottery Classes
2008 - 2009
Hand Building and Wheel Classes for Small Groups
Pottery classes are designed to give individual attention to each student as we explore the many possibilities of creating with clay. This is great for parents and children to take together, for Girl Scout badge requirements and for Holiday theme projects. Class size is limited.
There are many different times and types of pottery classes offered at Cely’s House.
Saturday Pottery Workshops
Saturday workshops are project-based classes. We will work from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon on one larger piece followed by a glazing class held on a future Saturday at the same times. Workshops will be scheduled for groups of 6 - 8.
A charge of $50.00 per person covers instruction, materials, and firing for both sessions. Additional time used for making and glazing larger projects will be charged at $10.00 per hour per person, plus a small material fee depending on the project.
Girl Scout Troop Workshops
One of the most popular pottery classes offered at Cely’s House is a two session class geared especially for Girl Scout Troops. We will focus discussion and projects to fulfill the pottery badge requirements. Girls will learn about the different methods of working with clay and make simple pieces using either pinch, coil, or slabs.
Class times will be offered during regular meeting nights. Two sessions are needed to complete a piece and also to experience glazing. A fee of $25.00 per person covers both sessions and includes materials and firing. Cub Scouts are also welcome to come.
Parent ⁄ Child Workshops
An ongoing mother ⁄ daughter, parent ⁄ child class is offered on Friday nights. We will do special art work where parents can work together with their children. Two sessions per month works best and new groups are being formed and scheduled often.
