Ceramics Studio Selkirk College

Program Description

Ceramic work exemplifies the human ability to be both innovative and purposeful in the pursuit of designing and making, with the most basic of materials—clay. With instruction in forming techniques, glaze technology, surface treatment and kiln operation, Selkirk instructors combine studio and conceptual skills. The courses will refine and strengthen a student's creative talents. In their studio time, students will obtain confidence with ceramic processes, knowledge of studio safety and achieve individual goals. Selkirk's practicing artist instructors demonstrate and assign exercises in contemporary ceramic design methods as well as traditional techniques in handbuilding, mold making, wheel forming, glazing and firing.
