Welcome to Rio del Valle's Ceramics Class Portfolio

In the 2017/18 school year, Rio del Valle offered it's first Ceramics class as a year long elective. Working with low fire clay, students learn and develop hand building techniques and throwing skills on the pottery wheel.

"Yes, it is frustrating when a piece you worked on for a long time breaks on the way to the kiln, or the glaze turns out hideous. But the sooner you learn to look forward to the next piece rather than back, the sooner your skills will improve so most of your pieces will be great!"
