Pinchy Pinchy w/ Emily Schroeder Willis

All Levels $75-$125 Materials and Studio Fees*

Pinching and coiling is one of the oldest methods of working with clay.

We will delve into this deceptively simple yet versatile approach to handbuilding, exploring the realms of both functional vessels and sculpture using a blend of traditional and contemporary methods. Through the lens of historical pinched vessels from diverse cultures, we’ll glean insights to expand our artistic process. Prepare to pinch till your hearts content, no prior experience required. Bisque firing only.

*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
