Ceramics

The concentration in Ceramics provides students with a comprehensive education in all aspects of ceramic fine art and design/production. This includes hand-building, wheel-throwing, mold-making, slip-casting, as well as clay and glaze formulation. Our studio accommodates various firing methods, including oxidation, reduction, soda, and raku. We collaborate with local community studios to offer internships, part-time teaching positions, and occasional opportunities for wood firing.

The Mudslingers, a student organization, provides ceramics students with the opportunity to sell their work both on and off campus and to plan and lead masterclasses in the ceramics studio for their peers. Lower and intermediate classes in the concentration emphasize techniques, while advanced classes concentrate on content, surface, and professional development along the student’s chosen path within ceramics.

Each student can tailor their education in the upper levels to suit their unique goals and aspirations, allowing us to best prepare them for their specific career within the broader field of ceramics. The faculty are nationally renowned artists with expertise in figure sculpting, wheel throwing, digital design for ceramic production, and slip casting.
