Ceramics | Wheel-Throwing: Beyond the Basics (Wed, August 12, 2026)

Wed, 12 Aug 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Questions or trouble signing up for this class? Email ceramics@tcmaker.org.

9 sessions across 3 summer months

Intermediate level

Prerequisite: Wheel Throwing 101 or equivalent experience

Summer is the perfect time to slow down, go deeper, and let your practice breathe. This three-part series is designed for makers who have the basics under their belt and are ready to push their forms further (without the pressure of a back-to-back weekly commitment).

Spread across three focused 3-week sessions with intentional breaks in between, this class gives you time to make, reflect, experiment on your own, and come back ready for the next challenge. Each module session builds on the last, so by the end of the summer you'll have a cohesive body of work and a noticeably expanded throwing vocabulary.

Session 1: Going Bigger We start by stretching your ambitions and your clay. Our focus will be on throwing larger, more complex forms: taller vessels, wider openings, closed vessels, and pieces that require more control, patience, and planning. Expect hands-on demos, individual feedback, and a honest look at where your technique wants to grow.

Session 2: Lidded Forms One of the most satisfying and technically demanding areas of wheel throwing, lidded forms ask you to think about fit, proportion, and function all at once. We'll explore different lid styles and how the relationship between vessel and lid defines the whole piece.

Session 3: Dinnerware & Beyond The final module takes on the dinner table — plates, bowls, and the forms that make a set feel intentional. We'll also explore what happens when the wheel is just the beginning: altering thrown forms off the wheel and integrating hand-building techniques to push your work into new territory. We'll close the summer with time dedicated to surface decoration and glazing, so your pieces feel as considered on the outside as they are on the inside.

The breaks between modules are part of the class. Use that time to keep making on your own, let pieces dry and get fired, and arrive at the next module with fresh eyes.

This class is for you if you've completed Wheel Throwing 101 or have equivalent studio experience and are ready to work with more intention and less hand-holding in the best possible way.

Instructor: Paola Evangelista is a ceramic artist and educator with 15 years of experience working across functional ware, sculptural installation, and everything in between. Her classes are a space to build real skill while asking bigger questions about what we make and why.

Ceramics Orientation (Thu, August 20, 2026)

Thu, 20 Aug 2026 23:00:00 GMT

All members who want to use the new Ceramics studio will need to be oriented to the new space, policies, and processes that will make this a wonderful place to create.... and this includes members who were already oriented to the old studio.

The general orientation will orient you with the Twin Cities Maker (TCM) as a whole, while our TCM Ceramics (TCMC) orientation will focus specifically on the processes and procedures in our ceramics studio. We recommend completing the general orientation before the ceramics orientation. You do not need to attend orientation before taking a class or workshop. However, orientation is a requirement to keep using the studio after a class or workshop ends.

Our ceramics orientation will cover:

Our Safety and Firing Policy
Consumables (clay, glaze, firing)
Reserving Tools
TCMC Member Storage
Classes vs. Sign-Offs (the sign-offs allow you to bypass our mandatory 101 classes through a portfolio review)
... and most importantly: a Studio Tour!!!

NOTE: *You must attend the general Twin Cities Maker Orientation ("New Member Orientation") in addition to our Ceramics Studio Orientation.*

Questions or trouble signing up for this orientation? Email ceramics@tcmaker.org

Ceramics | Glazing Basics Workshop (Sun, August 23, 2026)

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Questions or trouble signing up for this class? Email ceramics@tcmaker.org.

Title: Glazing Basics Workshop

Dates: August 23, 2026

Time: 10 am - 12:30 pm

Instructor: Jules "JJ" Bunch

Minimum enrollment: 4

Maximum Enrollment: 14

Glazing is one of those quietly magical parts of ceramics—the moment when color, chemistry, intuition, and a little bit of bravery all come together. In this workshop, we’ll take our time, explore glaze choices, talk through layering and surface effects, and practice techniques that help your pieces feel expressive and alive.

We’ll also spend time on safety, because glazing is both creative and chemical. You’ll learn how to protect your own health while working with materials, and how to glaze in ways that keep our shared kilns safe—preventing issues like work fusing to shelves, dripping onto others’ pieces, or causing kiln damage. Think of it as learning the “why” behind the process, not just the “how,” so you can glaze with confidence and care.

Whether you’re bringing your own bisque‑fired work or practicing on an instructor‑provided form, you’ll be supported every step of the way. Expect warmth, curiosity, and a community‑centered atmosphere where questions are welcome and experimentation is encouraged.

WATERCOLOR LANDSCAPES, A 5-Week Painting Series (Mon, October 19, 2026)

Mon, 19 Oct 2026 23:30:00 GMT

Discover the beauty of watercolor through landscape painting in this 5-week series designed for beginners and developing artists alike.

Watercolor is beautifully suited to capturing the natural world. Its fluidity and versatility can give us soft skies, layered depth, and expressive textures that bring landscapes to life on paper.

In this course, you'll learn how to work with water and pigment from the ground up. We will begin with foundational techniques and build upon your culminating skills toward a finished landscape painting of your own. Along the way, you'll explore how to create natural shapes, color, atmosphere and depth—using a balance of control and spontaneity.

Each session combines guided instruction, hands-on practice, and time to develop your own work, giving you both the skills and confidence to continue painting beyond the course.

Whether you're brand new to watercolor or returning after time away, this class offers a supportive, focused environment where you can slow down, build technique, and enjoy the creative process.

What You'll Experience

Clear, step-by-step introduction to watercolor techniques
Guided practice applying those techniques to natural subjects
Individual and group feedback to support your growth
A relaxed, engaging studio atmosphere
The satisfaction of creating your own landscape painting

What You'll Learn

Over five sessions, you will:

Build confidence with washes, water control, and color mixing
Explore key techniques like wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, dry brush, lifting, and masking
Learn how to paint trees, skies, water, and atmospheric effects
Understand composition and depth in landscape painting
Create and refine a finished landscape painting
