Ceramics offers courses in both wheel throwing and sculptural hand-building.  There are several introductory elective classes for students to choose from.  Upon completion of an introductory class, students can choose to enroll in the Advanced Ceramics class before continuing on for the honors level Ceramics Intensive program. The Ceramics Studio has 14 student wheels, a designated space for sculptural hand-built work to be created, another designated area for recycling clay, and an area for glazing the work students produce.   There is a separate kiln room which houses 3 electric kilns to fire all the clay works.  Students are encouraged to take creative risks in both the wheel throwing and the hand-building sculpture classes. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
