Ceramics course

This type of interaction is suitable if ceramics attracts you on a deeper level than a one-time event.

Do you want to make your first items for sale, give gifts to your family, or are you looking for a new hobby?

I highly recommend understanding the basics of ceramic craft. Why do I think this is a great opportunity?

  • Well, first of all, at the moment there are no other places in Riga where you can dive deeper into the entire manufacturing process.

  • You will try different materials for modeling, and slip casting. We will learn the basics of various techniques, try different paints and glazes.

  • I will save you money and nerves by sharing with you the mistakes I have made and what I have learned, telling you about observations and conclusions about the compatibility of different materials in combination with different glazes.

  • I will share with you tips and tricks that will help minimize the percentage of defects, so that the result pleases you more often.

What you will learn:

  • 9 meetings (we will try to fit them in one month)

  • 12 products made with your own hands

  • useful cheat sheet from me

  • ~35 hours in the workshop

  • a gift with a few tools that will definitely come in handy

  • after the training we will keep in touch and I will support you in your endeavors

  • I will give you the opportunity to rent my kiln to fire your pieces, as you will have learned how to glaze from me

Price: 550€ (can be divided into two payments, before the start of the course and in the middle of it).

Training takes place in a small group of two students
