CMW Workshops: Accessible Learning at Your Pace

CMW Workshops are a great option for those who want to explore ceramics at their own pace. These on-demand courses are our shorter online course series, where you can rewatch the lessons as many times as you need.  Monthly membership or Lifetime access options are available.

• Glaze of Our Lives: This popular class is perfect for absolute beginners, providing a foundational understanding of glazes and how they work.
• The Middle Glazes: This workshop dives deeper into glazes specifically formulated for cone 6 firing.
• Glazed and Confused: Learn about glaze chemistry on a deeper level with this short workshop on the Unity Molecular Formula.

CMW also offers a workshop bundle that combines all three glaze workshops for a discounted price!

Full Courses: Interactive Learning with Hands-on Labs

If you’re looking for a more interactive learning experience, consider one of CMW’s Full Course Experience courses. These comprehensive courses provide four months of on-demand access to lectures, hands-on lab exercises, and live Q&A sessions with instructor Matt Katz and other students.
