Defining the Line - with Albert Goldreich
Back by popular demand: our own Albert Goldreich will teach a 2-day class from 10 am to 12 noon on July 23 & 25, all about the surface decoration of pottery using masking tape and/or wax with underglaze and glaze. If interested, put your name on the list posted on the bulletin board near the studio’s kitchen, and deposit a $10 check (made out to CAC), in the silver box on the front desk, to hold your place. FYI, when you attend the class you will get your check back, but if you do not show up, it will be forfeited.
The maximum number of students is 16, so it’s best to sign up soon!

Wheel Throwing Clinic in the Ceramic Studio on Tuesday Mornings
CAC currently has a free Wheel Throwing Clinic every Tuesday morning from 9:30-11:30 a.m., led by our own Gordon Ward. (NOTE: this was formerly held on Friday mornings.) The focus is on clay preparation, throwing and/or trimming (plus other related skills) and help or advice will be given if requested.
This is open to any of our members who have taken at least a beginning level throwing class. It is based on first come, first served because of space limitations in the Wheel Room - eight attendees are the maximum.
Gordon plans to conduct this Wheel Throwing Clinic every Tuesday morning at the same time for the foreseeable future (except when he is out of town or unavailable for some other reason, in which case this will be posted on the white board that's attached to Damp Closet #4 in the Wheel Room). Many thanks to Gordon for volunteering his time & expertise!
