6 sessions / Wednesdays from 5:00 - 8:00 PM
Teaching Artist: Charlene Carpenzano
Cost: $330 per person, $297 for Members ($50 additional material fee)
This 6-week intermediate ceramics class is designed for students ready to deepen both their handbuilding and wheel skills while developing more personal, thoughtful work. Every other week, students will receive a new prompt or focused demonstration to spark ideas, followed by a class dedicated to explore, problem-solve, and build independently.
The class encourages experimentation with form, surface, and function while giving students space to strengthen their own artistic voice. Week 5 will focus on glazing techniques and surface finishes, and Week 6 will include a supportive group critique along with time to complete any unfinished glazing.
Location and Parking:
Newport Art Museum classes are held in the Museum School at the Coleman Center for Creative Studies, at 26 Liberty Street. Please park in our museum parking lots or on Liberty Street.
