Fall 2026 Glazing Workshop: Underglaze Painting on Porcelain
Saturday, October 17 from 10:30-12:30 OR
Saturday, November 28 from 10:30-12:30
Join us for this two-hour class where you will learn the basics and possibilities of decorating porcelain with underglazes.
This surface treatment resembles paint in many ways and can allow you to create a multi-colored image that will remain almost identical to what you have painted even after the final glaze firing.
Once you have underglazed your piece(s), we will add a coat of clear glaze for a shiny finish.
We have made many shapes of porcelain from which you can choose. Pieces can be painted to create any number of things-pendants, plant tags, ornaments or wall plaques.
All materials are provided. You may paint several pieces as time allows.
You can pick up finished work in about three weeks time.
All levels welcome. Ages 14+
Tuition is $95.

Open Studio Session
Every Tuesday from 5:30-8:30
& Saturdays from 10-1 or 1-4.
You must pre-register.
Join us for a 3 hour open studio to get some additional time in the studio. Want to finish a project or work on some glazing? Or maybe this is the space for your regular studio practice. An instructor is on-hand to assist but should not be expected to fully instruct any technique so students are required to have taken a 4 or 8 Week Beginner/Intermediate session or must be currently enrolled in order to participate.
You can pick up your finished work after we fire your pieces for you. This takes three weeks.
Open studio is available (almost!) every Tuesday from 5:30-8:30pm, slots open on an ongoing basis, Saturday mornings from 10-1 or afternoons from 1-4. Occasional Friday afternoon availability, too. Scroll through and select your date(s) for attendance.
Tuition is $65.00, materials and firing are included, with some size limitations.
All class and workshop sales are final--no refunds or exchanges. We reserve the right to cancel should a minimum number of registrations not be met. More questions? info@localpottery.com
