Create your own handmade teapot in this 5-day or 4-day clay workshop in Knoxville.
Limited to just 8 students per session, this small-group experience is open to 5th graders through adults.
Join us for a unique summer pottery experience where students will design and build a functional teapot from clay while learning the fundamentals of ceramic hand building, form, and surface design. This workshop is designed for beginners and returning clay students who want to deepen their skills in a creative and encouraging studio environment.
Over the course of five class sessions, participants will learn how to shape, assemble, and decorate their own teapot while gaining a better understanding of both the artistic and functional sides of ceramics. Because this is a small group workshop, each student receives personalized instruction and plenty of hands-on support throughout the process.
This class is ideal for students searching for pottery classes in Knoxville, summer art workshops, clay classes for kids and adults, or hands-on creative experiences in a real studio setting. Adults are welcome and encouraged to join, making this a great fit for individuals, friends, parent-and-child pairs, or anyone who has always wanted to try teapot making in clay.
By the end of the workshop, each participant will have created a one-of-a-kind handmade teapot and will take part in a special tea party celebration to enjoy and showcase their finished work.
