  • Master Handbuilding Techniques in Ceramics: Comprehensive 6-Week Course

    My experience was a lot fun. I took the course with my boyfriend. It ended up being a very small class and our instructor was Audrey. She was great! Very patient and very knowledgeable, our experience with her made us enroll as members after the class was over.
