Have a cherished item from your childhood that you would like to recreate in clay? Join Amy Smoot on February 22 & 23 from 2-5pm for this nostalgic hand building class! Learn how to sculpt different objects using pinching, slab-building, and coil building methods. Once objects are built, students will spend time further refining their objects with carving and specialized techniques. On the second day of class, students will be able to finish their projects with colorful glazes. Students are encouraged to bring their object, or pictures/print outs for personalized instruction. This class is beginner friendly and doesn't require experience to join! This workshop is limited to participants 18+. There is a minimum of 4 participants and a maximum of 12. If the minimum is not met, participants will be refunded. About Amy Smoot: Amy Smoot is the Clay Studio manager at Kentuck. She is from Carrollton, GA and currently resides in Tuscaloosa, AL.
