Meet your Instructor

Sharlene Laros

I’m doing what I love, teaching and making art.

I have worked in several mediums from microscopy to resin, from large interactive sculptures to ceramics.

I fell in love with ceramics, the meditative quality, working with my hands, and creating in three dimensions captivated me. I’m still exploring, still learning and experimenting with the medium, and I want to teach you the things I have learned in a comfortable, inclusive space. A space that is made for mistakes, imperfections and growth.

FAQs

  • No, this is a beginner friendly space, we are here to help!

  • No. Pieces will be fired a week after creation, if you glazed the day of, you can pick up your piece after 2 weeks.

  • I work a lot and have decided to go back to school, this year I'm finishing my 3rd year in graphic design, so I'm only in the studio when people are signed up for workshops and classes!

  • 4 months, after that I can not guarantee they will still be in the studio, I have limited space.
