Led by Jeffery Sun Young Park, LMFT

Fridays from 10am - 1pm 

6 sessions - February 14, 21, 28 + March 14, 21, 28  

2971 Allesandro Street, Los Angeles, 90039

This session is designed for those with prior experience with clay who would like to work independently on their own projects and expand their skills within focused and communal studio time. Participants will work with artist, educator and therapist, Jeffery Sun Young Park, to guide them through their personal projects, troubleshoot and learn techniques to support individual work. The session is well suited for those who have taken multiple workshops or have a fundamental knowledge of ceramics and would now like to work more independently in the studio to pursue their own ideas while learning more advanced techniques to support their interests. 

It is recommended that students have prior experience with ceramics and a basic understanding of working with the material including the different stages of clay; greenware, bisqueware and glazeware. This workshop is well suited for those who want focused studio time with support and would like to expand their skills and learn different approaches to working with clay. 

Throughout the duration of the course, participants will be given 25lb of clay to work with at home in order to practice, develop ideas and technique outside of class time. Participants are welcome to purchase more clay from the studio. Basic tools and materials are included. All pieces will be fired and ready for pick up within 3 weeks of the final session. All pieces that are glazed will be food, microwave and dishwasher safe.

  

Instructor   

Jeffery Sun Young Park LMFT #108456 (b. 1987, Los Angeles, CA) is a first generation queer Corean* based in Los Angeles. As a licensed marriage and family therapist Park works within a practice that champions BI and POC, queer, trans and gender non binary people. Through his own personal journey for self care he discovered ceramics. Park’s ceramic work is hand built using stoneware clay that is mid, high, soda and raku fired.

*The spelling of Corea with a C is the original spelling before colonization. As a Corean person, this spelling represents Park’s hope for a unified Corea.

 

Sliding Scale Pricing

Sliding scale pricing is a tool for social equity. We use sliding scale pricing to make ceramics education accessible and affordable. 

There are three tiers for pricing, when signing up for a workshop, please pay on the scale what feels right to you and your current finances. This is a trust based system, only you will know what feels comfortable and possible.

The high end of the scale is the true cost. If you are someone who can afford to pay this, please do, as this offsets the price for others, allowing us to create more affordable offerings.

There are a set amount of spaces available per tier to ensure that the scale is balanced and workshop costs are covered. If a tier is sold out it means that all those spots have been spoken for. An interest free payment plan is available for all workshops, breaking the workshop cost down to smaller payments over a longer period of time.

We do our best to ensure workshops are accessible and affordable. We are continuously improving our pricing system, please reach out if you have any questions or ideas you'd like to share.

  

Cancellation Policy

Workshops are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend the workshop you may transfer your spot to another person, please confirm with the studio when doing so.
