In this immersive eight-week journey, we invite you to explore the profound dynamics between the world around us and the stories within us, viewed through the lens of nature and history.

Just as the mineral springs here have carved their way through the earth over centuries, our personal histories are shaped by the environments we inhabit. We will look to the surrounding landscape—the ancient trees, the weathered stone architecture, and the medicinal springs—as a mirror for our own lived experiences. Participants will be encouraged to explore how their personal history intersects with the broader legacy of Yellow Springs, finding where individual memory meets collective heritage.

This class is for students who have a basic understanding of wheel throwing from wedging to shaping on the wheel. Our goal is to provide an open environment for pushing limits and experimentation. I base demonstrations off of class interests but we will focus on altering forms on and off the wheel as well as creating multi-part forms.
