Meet the wheel. Stay a while.

There’s a moment on the wheel where things start to click—where your hands begin to understand what your brain has been trying to tell them. This intensive is designed to get you there.

Over three consecutive days, participants spend dedicated time at the wheel building foundational skills through guided practice and repetition. You’ll focus on centering, forming, and refining essential shapes—working through the process multiple times so adjustments can be made in real time.

As forms begin to feel more consistent, you’ll move into keeping pieces, refining them through trimming, and finishing with simple surface decoration.

Light meets clay in this two-day intensive focused on the design and construction of contemporary architectural lamps.

This workshop explores lamps as functional design objects. Think clean lines, geometric forms, arches, curves, negative space, repetition and unexpected silhouettes — pieces that feel as much like small-scale architecture as they do ceramics.

Participants will design and handbuild their own ceramic lamp base using slab and sculptural construction techniques, with a focus on proportion, balance, structure and stability.
