About this event
Come make something a little strange and entirely your own. In this 2-hour hands-on session, you'll glaze and decorate a hand-built, pre-made clay pipe — no wheel, no prior experience, just color, texture, and your own hands making the call. You'll layer glaze, sculpt small clay accents, and shape a piece that's genuinely one-of-one. Once it's fired (twice!), we'll text or email you when it's ready to pick up at the Denver Art Society on Santa Fe Drive. **No experience needed.** We'll walk you through everything. **To join:** Click "Attend", and send payment via Venmo to @Chelsea-Clark-24 ahead of time. **What You'll Learn** * Applying and layering glaze for depth and color variation * Attaching clay molds and sculpting your own accents * Designing a piece that feels cohesive, start to finish * Prepping and finishing work for firing **How It Works** 1. **Before class** — Your blank pipe is hand-built and ready to go. 2. **Class day (3 hours)** — Glaze and decorate it however you like. 3. **First firing** — Into the kiln it goes. 4. **Week 2** — Two coats of clear glaze for shine and waterproofing. 5. **Second firing** — Back in the kiln for the final round. 6. **Week 4** — Pick up your finished piece at the Denver Art Society.
