The objective of this class is to make an art piece from broken bits of ceramic or glass. We will work on cutting techniques and use of various materials, as well as, discussions on such topics as adhesives, substrates, tools, framing and hanging, etc. We will all learn from others in the group.

The student should be able to center clay on the wheel with minimum difficulty and have strong working knowledge of throwing clay on the wheel. Note: This is not an instructor led class, you will be working on your own during studio hours. If you have pain in hands, elbow, shoulder, or weakness in arms or back this may not be an ideal option for you.
