Ceramics workshops scheduled at College Ceramics from several different dif-ferent perspectives will be treated July 7-25 at special workshops at Southern Utah State College. Maurice Grossman, professor of art at the University of Arizona, will assist Robert Gerring of the Southern Utah State staff in each of two workshops. A one-week special session will begin July 7 and run through July 11. Most of the work will involve techniques of glazing and decorating ceramic pieces. Classes will be held from 9 a.m. until noon. A more extensive workshop is scheduled July 7-25. This will combine instruction from four specialists: Grossman will treat glazing and decoration, Gerring will demonstrate pottery ; kills, Greg Worthington will discuss production pottery, and Steve Strebel will show and lecture on special effects of wood firing. Worthington and Strebel are recent SUSC art graduates. Registration will be accepted up until the time of the first class period at the SUSC Registrar's Office, Administration Building. A $30 fee will cover registration and materials. "There are at least three aspects of our three-week workshop that will make it somewhat unique,'' Gerring points out. "The first is the unique setting in Cedar Canyon of two kilns. Working in that kind of setting will make this a special experience." The last week of the workshop will also include a firing each day. "This will allow students to complete several pieces; often students are limited in the work they can complete in a short workshop, but with five firings, this should not be a problem for us," Gerring said. One of the five will be a wood firing. A public slide-illustrated lecture is scheduled July 9 (Wednesday) at 8 p.m. in the SUSC Music Building Recital Hall. Grossman will discuss "Contemporary U.S. Trends in Ceramics." Grossman has traveled extensively, ex-tensively, throughout the U.S. and in several foreign countries. He has been actively engaged in the American Craftman's Council and the World Crafts Council. He has exhibited nation wide in one-man and group shows, lectured at several universities, and juried major craft shows. "College credit for the workshops can be arranged at the time of registration," Gerring indicates. The ceramics offerings are part of an extensive SUSC Summer School workshops program. Several workshops have begun. Among those still scheduled are offerings in art education for elementary teachers, basketball for boys, business education, cinematography, crisis intervention, in-tervention, drama in the English classroom, environmental education, human awareness, and reading instruction. Others to be offered include kayaking, methods of remedial reading, music for teachers, music fundamentals, understanding un-derstanding Shakespeare, southern Utah ghost towns, tailoring with knits, women: yesterday and today, and youth sports fitness. 4 |
