2. (1) 25lb bag of stoneware - value at $35

We're offering the above for $100 per month with a three month commitment. After the three months are up, we can both assess whether this is working out and if you want to bow out, no problem. If we both would like to continue, Angela and I would be happy to have you as a part-time Eidoloner.


OFFER 2: Hourly/Daily Rental of Wheel or Time for Handbuilding.

We offer over 40 hours of open studio time per week and you can come in and use the potter's wheel or handbuild for $8/hr. If you want to make a day's commitment you receive one hour for free - 6hrs for $40.

We sell cone 5/6 stoneware for $35 per 25lb bag of clay. The cost includes use of studio glazes.


OFFER 3: 6-week Pottery Class.

I'll be offering a 4 week intensive on handbuilding with clay. Pinch pots, coil pots and slab pots can all be explored. Or perhaps you are interested in sculpting! This will happen too! It all depends on your interest and what you can do in 4 weeks. The class is non-structured, but I will be here to help each person individually create what they want. If you are unsure of what you want to do, then we'll explore different techniques to find one that you like.

The class will spend 4 Tuesday evening working on pieces. A week's break will be taken (so our pieces can dry) and then we'll come back to glaze our pieces. For the last class swing by and pick up your art. If people are interested, we can use this time to critique each other's work. If not, then just come by to take your art home.

Here's the schedule:

Class 1: Tuesday, November 15 (7-10pm)
Class 2: Tuesday, November 22 (7-10pm)
Class 3: Tuesday, November 29 (7-10pm)

This class includes a 25lb bag of stoneware, studio glazes and firing of pieces - all for just $125!!! What a great way to make some handmade holiday gifts inexpensively! And you learn about a wonderful, earthy medium - clay.

Offer limited to the first 8 people who reply and sign up. Sign-up will mean that you have paid your class fee. Clay needs beyond the 25lbs will be at a cost of $35 per 25lb bag (includes use of glazes).


Please feel free to invite others who might be interested.
