Course includes wheel practice and hand-building techniques emphasizing individual learning needs. Two types of firing will be explored: Cone 10 Gas Reduction and Cone 06 Raku Fast Fire. Instructor will collect additional fee for clay.

This is the perfect opportunity to practice your skills in your choice of media, with access to a live nude model. Artists are required to bring their own drawing materials. Pre-registration is recommended as space is limited. Walk-ins are welcome if space is available. This is not an instruction course.

Learn the basics of gem cutting as you create your own cabochon using diamond saws, grinds, and polishing equipment. Students need to bring a pair of safety goggles to class and students should wear clothes that can get wet or oily. Optional: bring an apron to protect clothing from oil spray from the saws. Students who successfully complete this class may reserve use of the lapidary lab equipment during the year with a current Clearwater Nature Center Associate Membership.

Resident Registration and Fees The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission policy gives priority to Prince George’s County residents during program and class enrollment; it also increases registration fees by approximately 20 percent for non-residents, or those living outside Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties. This procedure ensures that the citizens who fund these programs through their tax dollars have the first option to enroll. After the priority registration period, registrations are accepted from residents of all jurisdictions. The fee schedule applies to all Commission programs and facilities in Prince George’s County, with a few exceptions such as performance tickets and historic site admission fees. *NOTE: Full payment is due at registration unless a class or program has a scheduled payment structure i.e. Kids’ Care, Trips & Excursions. Need help? E-mail the Park and Planning Help Desk at help4smartlink@pgparks.com

Fee Structure

The registrant may withdraw from a course at any time prior to course end, and will be entitled to receive a pro-rated credit to his/her account, based on the number of classes remaining at the time the withdrawal is requested.
