Ready to take your pottery skills to the next level? Join instructor Cynthia Plaisted for this 5-week intermediate wheel throwing class designed for students who have completed a beginner wheel course and are comfortable with basic centering and throwing techniques. In this class, students will build on foundational skills while learning how to create taller forms, refine shaping techniques, explore trimming and finishing methods, and experiment with more advanced projects on the wheel. Cynthia will provide guidance and demonstrations to help students strengthen their confidence, consistency, and creativity at the wheel. Whether you’re aiming for smoother cylinders, better bowls, or pottery that actually survives the kiln intact, this class is the perfect next step in your clay journey. 

Clay and glaze cost is $50, due to the instructor at the first class.

The NACE Kindergarten Book Bag Project has been supporting incoming kindergarteners within our community for over 20 years. Our goal is to encourage education within the community, and get future kindergarteners excited about learning! Each bag contains resources for parents and fun activities for kids. This year, for the first time, we will also be making a pencil roll case for our new incoming pre-K students!

Each year, a group of volunteers work together to put these bags together, and with the generous support of local businesses and groups we are able to get supplies to put in the bags. Last year, our team put together almost 200 book bags, with extra to spare!

Volunteers help with: sewing bags, handles, and pencil roll cases, cutting, ironing, turning bags inside out
