About the Instructor: David Schoch has kept a passion for ceramics since college. Some of the more formative events that he’s been involved with are taking a college class from Robert Arneson at UC Davis, getting involved with the UCD Campus Recreation organization called the Craft Center, a salt-firing class at Napa College from Carolyn Broadwell, dismantling the CC's gas kiln, and more. David has his own ceramics studio at his house in Sebastopol, where he performs pit firings, cone 10 reduction firings, oxidation firings, and soda firing. He currently teaches beginner and intermediate wheel-throwing classes, and has a "guild" of co-workers that meets at his studio once a week to expand their skills and inspire him to try new things.
