Pottery
Our classes are Nashville’s introduction to pottery where our focus is primarily to get you started before moving on to more advanced studio options. Learn the basic techniques of wheel throwing, hand-building, and glaze application. Use of tools such as molds and slab roller will be demonstrated.
Painting
In the painting studios we offer drawing, painting, and beginning-printmaking classes. Beginners will develop basic drawing, painting, and composition skills with varying degrees of guided instruction and demonstrations. Intermediate level students deepen their understanding through practice and teacher assistance during classes.
