Event Overview

All Levels Pottery – 5-Week Course with Zach Stephens

Beginner, intermediate, and advanced potters are invited to join Zach Stephens for this immersive 5-week pottery course. This class supports all ability levels with a student-led approach to ceramics, incorporating both handbuilding and wheel throwing techniques. Whether you are new to pottery or looking to refine your craft, we will meet you where you are and help you reach your pottery goals. Community clay is included.

Beginners will learn the fundamentals of wheel throwing, handbuilding, decorative treatments, and glazing. Experienced potters can refine their skills and explore advanced techniques with expert guidance. With a small class size (8 max), students receive both whole-group instruction and one-on-one support. This class is open to students ages 11 and up.
