No, the sessions don't need to be on consecutive weeks. You can spread your four sessions over different weeks, giving you more flexibility to fit the classes into your schedule. Simply coordinate your preferred dates with the instructor, subject to availability.
Not at all! These classes are suitable for beginners as well as those who already have some experience with clay. You'll learn the fundamentals of hand-building and develop your skills at your own pace, with personal guidance throughout the process.
You'll explore the three basic hand-building techniques: pinching, coiling, and slab building. You'll also discover glazing options, experiment with different finishes, and learn more about the ceramic-making process.
Absolutely! Whether you'd like to explore ceramics freely or develop a specific idea, these classes offer the flexibility to follow your creative interests. With the instructor's guidance, you'll have time to experiment, learn from mistakes, and bring your personal ideas to life.
The classes take place every Wednesday in a small, welcoming ceramics studio in Graça, Lisbon. Please check with the instructor before your first session to confirm which materials and tools are provided and whether you need to bring anything.
