Tile Making

Sorry, this class has been cancelled.

Students in this class will design and produce several tiles using basic tile making and decorating techniques. Slab-rolled tile will be altered by carving, impressing, sgraffito, and glazing. Monday and Tuesday will be spent making with Friday reserved for glazing bisque fired tile. Pots will be fired the weekend after class, so arrangements just be made for pick-up or delivery of finished pieces. 25# of clay, glazes, and firing are included, as well as open studio.

He works in his home studio overlooking Sanford Lake in Benzie County. John and his wife Amy Stevens own and operate Glen Lake Artists Gallery in Glen Arbor.
