Clay and Glaze Materials:

The clays we are using in this course can be purchased through Ceramics by paying for tickets at UF’s Fowlett’s Bookstore. Resolute Terra Cotta is $11.50 for 25 lbs (one blue clay ticket)., Nan’s Sculpture Clay is $11.50 for 25 lbs. (one blue clay ticket). Glaze materials including, slips, wax resist, stains, patinas and pyrometric costs are covered by one materials fee. The payment of a one-time materials fee of $45.00 is to be made during the first week of classes at Fowlett’s Bookstore. The plaster and other mold making materials (alja-safe – you are entitled to 1 lb. through the fees for this class) are sold separately and can be purchased by the pound through the bookstore.

I will collect tickets during the second class meeting and dispense clay to you to start the first project. Additional clay will be available during class and can be gotten from our Ceramics tech, Ray Gonzalez during scheduled hours posted on his office door. Please arrange to pick up your clay during these hours. It is suggested that you keep any additional clay locked in your locker and that you recycle your used clay for future use. Please ask me if you do not know how to recondition your clay so that you can use it again.
