Introduction to Clay: Wheel + Hand Building (Ages 12-14)

Students begin by getting acquainted with hand building clay before diving into the wheel! They will learn the fundamentals of hand building techniques (pinch, coil, slab) and start to throw on the wheel. Students will also learn how to add color with glaze as their works come out of the kiln!

About the Instructor

Adah Kanter

Adah Kanter (she/her) is a maker by nature and loves the process of exploring creative solutions with different mediums. She attended Virginia Commonwealth University where she earned her BFA in Craft/Material Studies and her BFA in Art Education.
She has experience teaching the entire student spectrum, from her ten years teaching Art to PreK-12 students in Richmond-area schools to adults of all ages in community art studios including Studio Two Three and Clay Ground.
Adah enjoys creating most with fibers and clay and has discovered that while working with these mediums both become meditative processes. She can’t resist a challenging knitting or weaving project finding ways to make it her own or adding pattern to the surface of her hand built and wheel thrown works - from sgraffito to nerikomi, the influence of her background in fibers finds its way into her ceramics through her use of texture and color.
