Concrete Couch Presents: Clay with Frank
Overview
Pottery Throwing Lessons with Frank Gray – Explore, Learn & Get Your Hands Dirty!
Hosted by:
Frank Gray – Potter, Teacher & Community Artist
Event Description:
Join longtime potter Frank Gray for hands-on pottery throwing lessons in the park!
Frank began his pottery journey in 1969 at East Denver High School and never looked back. With mentors ranging from a ceramic engineering professor to one of Colorado’s top production potters, Frank has spent decades honing his craft. Alongside his wife Susan, he ran a large retail pottery studio in Littleton for 15 years, followed by a 20-year stint operating a bed and breakfast in Woodland Park.
Now semi-retired and newly closer to the park, Frank is excited to expand his outdoor pottery throwing lessons. These sessions are designed for absolute beginners and experienced potters alike, with a focus on exploration and fun, rather than finished products.
What to Expect:
- Two pottery wheels available at the park
- Small group sizes (2–4 people per session)
- Perfect for friends or family to attend together!
- All materials included: prepared clay, tools, and expert guidance
- Casual, supportive environment with no pressure—just creativity!
