About youth pottery classes

The Bascom's Ceramics Department offers young artists an opportunity to have fun, while helping developing style, technique, form, and concept. Classes incorporate a variety of techniques using the potter's wheel, slab roller, and hand building methods.  Works can be picked up a week after the final class.  Scholarships are available. (Minimum of 4 students per session)

When our regular youth pottery offerings fall on inconvenient dates or times, The Bascom offers "Art by Appointment", custom designed classes for individuals or groups.  For more information, please contact Frank Vickery at This email address is being protected from spambots.
