YFA032/Studio/01 - Form & Fire: Ceramics Studio 9th-12th | Credits 0.00
Slow down, get grounded, and make something lasting. Form & Fire: Contemporary Ceramics Studio introduces high school students to the art and craft of working with clay through hands-on exploration and thoughtful design. Students learn foundational handbuilding techniques to create functional and sculptural forms—such as bowls, vases, plates, and experimental vessels—while developing an understanding of form, balance, texture, and surface. Through guided demonstrations and individual studio time, students practice construction, trimming, and glaze application, gaining confidence with both process and materials. This course takes place in Moore’s industry-standard ceramics studio and kiln room, located in the College’s brand-new VAULT facility. By the end of the week, students leave with finished ceramic works and a deeper appreciation for clay as a powerful, meditative, and expressive medium. Skills & topics include: Handbuilding techniques (pinch, coil, slab) Functional and sculptural vessel design Surface texture and glaze application Studio practices and kiln processes Creative problem-solving through material exploration No prior ceramics experience is required—just curiosity and a willingness to get your hands dirty.
