I am so excited to my love of clay with the community! Pottery and ceramics are so much fun, and after the year and half that we have all had – don’t we deserve some fun? But, beyond that, clay is one of the most satisfying arts to do. To take a lump of clay, and transform it into a functional beautiful piece of art, even if you have no experience, is so fulfilling! Come join us and give it a shot! All kinds of different opportunities await. Sign up for a 6 week workshop, a project based project, or lessons on the potters wheel. Lots to choose from!
I have been making pottery for over 40 years, when I was first introduced to clay at camp. My parents saw my obsession with it, and ended up buying me a 2 speed wheel that I used for many years, up until the wires wore out and it started to electrocute me. At that point, I bought myself a kick wheel, and the rest is history. For the last 5 years, I have been teaching classes and individually at my home studio, but a bigger space was needed to keep up with demand!
We are located in the old Prescott School, in the ground floor, where the old art room used to be. The Prescott School is located on Main Street in Groton, and has had a long and storied past, which can be read about here. It’s latest transformation is now beginning to take shape, with all kinds of other artists beginning to find there home in the old school.
Given the stress of the pandemic, a pottery class or workshop would be a nice way to ease back into things. Small groups, no expectations, and clay. What could be better!
