The Program
Working With Intention with Chris Alveshere.
During this week-long high school institute, participants will gain experience and knowledge to help them work more intentionally on the potter’s wheel. Through demonstration, presentation, and an abundance of time in the studio, you will gain the skills to throw forms in sections, forms in multiples, and more. There will also be both individual and group feedback and conversation. In addition to the throwing practice and assistance, we will cover surface techniques and applications during our time together.
All levels, beginners encouraged.
