Have you been interested in dedicating time to your clay practice, or starting one? Our 10 week adult clay courses are the perfect opportunity for both beginners, intermediate and advanced clay artists!

Our instructor, Marlaina Lutz will walk you through integral knowledge to begin your clay journey, such as wedging, making slabs, pinching/coiling and wheel throwing methods to create sculptural or functional pieces to use in your own home! Glazing, studio safety and etiquette will also be discussed. 

All work will be fired here at the studio, and you will recieve your first 25 lbs of clay with registration. Additional bags of clay can be purchased, and include the cost of firing and glazes. 
"Class Clay" is $35.00 per 25 lb bag. You are also welcome to purchase "Reclaim Class Clay" for $22.50 per 25lb bag, which is often more soft.  Tools are also available for purchase, and you are welcome to bring your own. No outside clays or glazes are allowed in the RLCC studio. Underglazes are ok. 

A private shelf will be provided for each student enrolled to store their work and/or tools. Just note that it is in a public work space, and RLCC is not responsible for belongings stored on your shelf.  

Students also have studio access outside of class time, during normal gallery hours, and when other events have not been scheduled:
Gallery Business hours (Open studio hours):
Tues.-Sat. 10am-6pm
Sunday 12-4pm

***RLCC reserves the right to close the studio for private lessons, community classes and other special events. All events will be noted on the public calendar at least 1 week in advance***

We hope to see you in the studio this winter/spring!
