A month to slow down\, get your hands dirty\, and ex plore what you can create with clay.

Over four weeks\, th is course is an introduction to the world of ceramics and the many ways yo u can shape\, build\, decorate\, and experiment with clay. You’ll learn the foundations of hand-building while having plenty of space to explore y our own ideas and develop your personal style.

Consider this your sign if… 👀

…you’ve been saying you need a new hobby.\n
\n …one pottery workshop was definite ly not enough.\n
\n …your Pinterest is suspiciously full of ceramics .\n
\n …you want one evening a week to do something creative.\n
\n …you keep looking at handmade ceramics and thinking\, “I want to ma ke that.”

You don’t need to arrive knowing exactly what you wa nt to create\, \;that’s part of the fun.

Throughout the cour se\, we’ll work with pinch\, coil\, slab\, and hollowing techniques\, cr eating around 4–6 pieces along the way. From functional objects you can use at home to more sculptural and challenging forms\, each week gives you something new to explore. And making the pieces is only half the fun. You ’ll also experiment with underglazes\, painting techniques\, engobes\, a nd glazing\, learning how colour and surface can completely transform your work.

No previous ceramics experience is needed \, \;just come ready to experiment\, get a little messy\, and see wher e the clay takes you. All materials\, tools\, underglazes\, glazes\, and f irings are included in the course fee of CHF 360.
