This 6-week course is aimed at adults who have little or no experience with clay or those who would like to improve their beginners’ skills. While slowly learning to create simple forms using coil building and pinching techniques, students will become familiar with the qualities of clay and the ceramic process. Students are guided to design and plan form and surface, gradually increasing their ability to see different aspects of form and create the forms they intended to make. Simple decorative techniques will be explored for surface decoration.By week 6, students will have the knowledge and skills to plan and complete their own coil building projects.
Materials: Clay, decoration / glaze materials and cost of firing included in course fee.

Where is Isla?
Isla has been travelling to Canberra to take part in the National Gallery Youth Council.
"The National Gallery Youth Council is a group of dynamic young creatives aged 15 to 25 years-old whose role is to represent and advocate young people at the National Gallery. Recruited annually from all over Australia, the group meets every four weeks and works with Gallery curators, artists and staff to develop and deliver programs for their peers — onsite, online and on tour."
Did you know that our Isla is also a member of the NT Youth Roundtable.
"The Committee comprises of 18 young people from around the Territory who will be actively involved to provide input on the development of government policies, programs and services. These young people are advocates for the climate, gender diversity, mental health and disabilities and no doubt will achieve incredible results during their time as members of the NT Youth Round Table."
Isla came to Central Craft through a 3 month placement as part of a NXT Gen ARTS grant. “This program provides a practical introduction into running an arts business by learning from established artists and sector professionals,” The next round of NXT Gen Arts Grants are open, so if you or someone you know aged between 18 and 25 would like to apply please contact us at Central Craft.
Congrats Isla we are very proud of all you do nationally, in the Territory and locally to advocate for the arts, young people and our region.
