SUMMARY:Sunday Pottery Series
DESCRIPTION:Discover the art of pottery in this five-session guided series designed for beginners and developing ceramic artists. Over the course of five Sundays\, participants will explore the ceramic process from shaping clay to creating finished pieces. \nBecause pottery is a multi-step craft that requires drying and kiln firings between sessions\, projects are completed over several weeks. This format allows students to experience the complete pottery process while receiving personalized instruction and support. \nThe Sunday Pottery Series is a repeatable program\, with content and projects varying based on the experience level\, interests\, and goals of each group. New potters will receive foundational instruction in wheel throwing and handbuilding\, while returning students may continue developing their skills\, refining techniques\, and exploring new projects. \nUpon successful completion of the series and demonstration of safe studio practices\, participants may be eligible to apply for Pottery Membership\, which provides independent access to the pottery studio during designated open studio hours. \nPlease note: This class includes instructor-led sessions only. Open studio access outside of scheduled class time is not included with this series. Independent studio access is available exclusively to approved Pottery Members.

SUMMARY:Leather: Traditional Buckskin Braintanning
DESCRIPTION:Step into one of the oldest traditional crafts in North America and learn the complete process of creating authentic braintanned buckskin from raw animal hides. In this immersive four-part course\, instructor Nolan Morningstar will guide students through every stage of the transformation process using time-honored techniques and hands-on instruction. \nOver the course of four workshop sessions\, students will flesh\, grain\, membrane\, brain\, soften\, and smoke their hides while learning the science\, history\, and practical skills behind traditional hide tanning. Each class builds on the previous session\, allowing participants to experience the full progression from raw hide to finished buckskin. \nThe workshop will take place September 5\, 12\, 26 & 27 from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Due to the traditional tanning process\, time between several classes is required to properly prepare the hides for the next stage. \nThis is a highly tactile and physically active class where students should expect to work outdoors at times\, get dirty\, and engage in moderate to strenuous physical activity. Individual guidance will be provided throughout the process\, and students will receive handouts to support continued learning beyond the workshop. \nParticipants may work individually on their own hide or partner with another student to share a hide and alternate tasks. Students under 16 should attend with an adult partner. \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\n\nAll hide tanning materials and instructional handouts. \n\n\nUse of instructor-provided tanning tools and equipment during class. \n\n\nHands-on instruction throughout all four workshop sessions. \n\n\n\n\nWhat’s not included\n\n\nTransportation to and from class. \n\n\nNon-alcoholic beverages \n\n\nsnacks \n\n\nClothing suitable for messy outdoor work. \n\n\n\n\nItinerary\n\nThis is a physically demanding workshop that involves scraping\, wringing\, stretching\, and outdoor work. \nStudents should wear clothes and footwear that can get dirty or stained. \nSome workshop sessions must be spaced apart to allow proper hide processing between stages. \nfinal smoking will be completed by the instructor after class for later pickup. \nREGISTER

Students under 16 should attend with an adult partner. \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\n\nAll hide tanning materials and instructional handouts. \n\n\nUse of instructor-provided tanning tools and equipment during class. \n\n\nHands-on instruction throughout all four workshop sessions. \n\n\n\n\nWhat’s not included\n\n\nTransportation to and from class. \n\n\nNon-alcoholic beverages \n\n\nsnacks \n\n\nClothing suitable for messy outdoor work. \n\n\n\n\nItinerary\n\nThis is a physically demanding workshop that involves scraping\, wringing\, stretching\, and outdoor work. \nStudents should wear clothes and footwear that can get dirty or stained. \nSome workshop sessions must be spaced apart to allow proper hide processing between stages. \nfinal smoking will be completed by the instructor after class for later pickup. \nREGISTER
