Let your creativity take a spin on the potter’s wheel! New students will learn all the essentials- how to wedge clay, center confidently, throw cylinders, trim, and glaze. Continuing students can level up by creating bowls, plates, and other wheel-thrown wonders. Your instructor will demo each step and offer hands-on help whenever you need it. (Trust us, repeating this course only makes you better.) Don’t forget to bring an old kitchen towel you won’t mind getting gloriously clay-covered! We kindly request that you wear closed-toe shoes.
NEW: Clay will be provided to students. Glazes and firing are also included in the class price. Please bring an old kitchen-sized towel you don’t mind getting dirty with you, and please wear closed-toed shoes.
See the materials lists for further information.
