Class Description:
We are so excited to launch this new program with multi-media artist & instructor Alexis Babian! This 8-week, all levels class explores the intersection of printmaking and ceramics, offering a deep dive into techniques for transferring image, pattern, and narrative onto clay. Designed for both potters and printmakers, this course will build fluency across materials

Explore ways to create your own unique imagery while learning multiple methods for making repeatable, layered surface design. The class will be anchored around creating silk screens to print your own underglaze transfers, but many other techniques will come up along the way!

One week we will take a field trip over to our textiles studio, Glebe House, where we will use the exposure unit to create our own screens! Please note, Glebe House is a historic home and is not handicap accessible. Reach out if this may be an issue for you and we will be happy to discuss accommodations and make a plan together.

Included:
Unlimited Open Studio time during the class
Silkscreen to use during the course
Underglaze for printing
12 lbs of fresh clay
Shared shelf space
