A great opportunity working with porcelain clay, we will build a simple roundish lidded "box" and carve heavily into it. Students will be provided with 5lbs of Coleman Porcelain Clay, enough to make 2 small round containers. The product will then be glazed in Celadon by Kimberly at Chastain to a high fired Cone 10. You will need basic clay tools such as a sponge, needle tool, and carving tool.

During the Spring 2021 Session, students will be able to drop off their greenware at Chastain during individually scheduled appointments for the first (bisque) firing. Materials are not included in the cost of these classes unless otherwise stated. Each bag of clay purchased ($27 for a 25lb bag) will allow up to 2 cubic feet of firing space. Overages will require an additional fee, $10 per cubic foot. If you would like additional glazing time, it can be purchased for a fee of $10 per hour. There will be a minimum of one-hour breaks between scheduled isolated glaze appointments for sanitization. Students will be required to wear masks and sanitize while at Chastain Arts Center.

If City of Atlanta reverts back to Phase I of the Mayor’s Reopening Plan, the building will be closed until we move back into Phase II.
