Classes / Lessons / Workshops

I enjoy working with people to help them learn about working with clay.  Please contact me if you are interested in Private/Semi-Private lessons to focus on area of interest. If you have a group of people that would like to have a class or workshop we can coordinate this too.  I’m mobile too, so workshops can be at my studio or at your studio/home.
