Marbling Clay

$360

with GAC Team

Calendar Next available session starts Jul 8, 2026 at 6 pm, runs for 6 weeks

This class is for intermediate and advanced students only.

In this class, we'll explore the art of layering colored clays, creating pieces through both hand building and wheel throwing. Lisa Knaus, our Pottery Studio Manager and Teaching Artist, will start things off by guiding students through making their own colored clays using slip and stains — a hands-on, creative process from the very beginning. From there, Teaching Artist Kim Waldhauer takes over and shares her knowledge of creating patterns, as well as embracing the beautiful surprises that come with the process.

We'll wrap up with a glazing session, with special instruction on how to let your clay's natural colors take center stage rather than get lost under the glaze. Students choose their own colors — within the wonderful range that the stains make possible.

Additional materials are required.
