Participants may bring their own clay or purchase a 25-pound bag at the museum for $15. Class size is limited to six students to ensure adequate work space. The fee for the five-week open studio is $40 for museum members and $50 nonmembers.

- Pottery Wheel class, 10 a.m. to noon, every Saturday from Jan. 5 to Jan. 26. Taught by artist Kaitlyn Gutshall, students will learn to make wheel projects from start to finish. Clay and access to tools will be provided to complete all projects. Children ages twelve and older may sign up for this class, accompanied by an adult who is also taking the class. All skills levels are accepted. The fee for the four-week class is $60 museum members or $70 for nonmembers.
