The classes are in small groups of maximum 6 students, so each one has a personalized attention and can work at his own rhythm. We will start with simple shapes with the possibility to later explore your own ideas.

We will develop the following skills: wedging, centering clay, pulling the walls, trimming, decorating with glazes and engobes.
