NEW 4-Week Sunday Handbuilding @ 10 am
Available spots
Class Description
Fun, functional & meditative! It's the perfect way to spend Sunday mornings, in our lively studio, making beautiful things with your hands. Learn how to handbuild functional pottery, or decorative pieces: mugs, planters, vases and other vessels, using a variety of pottery techniques. The third week of every session you work on your own project with the skills you've learned. More experienced potters can use this time to work independently with support of an instructor. The last class is for glazing your wares, making them food and dishwasher safe! NOTE: A minimum number of students must be enrolled for the class to proceed. If cancelled, students will be offered a spot in the next Sunday session.

Cancellation Policy
Studio Policies Students are not permitted to load, unload, or operate pottery kilns. Keep hair tied back for safety. Avoid wearing loose articles of clothing or jewelry that could pose hazards. Closed-toe and closed-heel footwear must be worn in the pottery studio. Do not operate any equipment without the presence of an instructor. All completed work must be collected from Ford City Potters within 6 weeks after the final class, once you're notified by email. Work will not be stored after 6 weeks. Students are expected to arrive on time for each class to ensure the smooth running of the session. Late arrivals cannot make up for lost time. For whatever reason, if Ford City Potters must cancel a session or class, students will be notified via email, and a full refund will be issued. Classes must be paid in full upon registering on the website (credit card or PayPal accepted). Classes are non-refundable. Makeup days are only possible only for glazing days, and only if a space is open in another class. Students are expected to maintain a respectful and inclusive environment in the classroom, treating the instructor and fellow participants with courtesy and consideration. Zero tolerance for disruptive or disrespectful behaviour. In other words, be kind at all times.
