Class:

Experience of magic of working in clay as you create and glaze functional, decorative, and sculptural forms using a pottery wheel. Students will use this class to continue developing their skills on the wheel. This class is set up to help start challenging students who feel good doing the basic steps of wheel throwing (centering, pulling, shaping, and trimming) with new skills, while continuing to develop various throwing techniques introduced from previous beginning-level throwing classes.

What You’ll Learn:

In a small group learning environment, you will review step-by-step instructions of the fundamentals of how to use a potter’s wheel such as wedging, centering, pulling, shaping, and finishing, while developing new techniques. You will also learn about basic glazing finishing skills for completing your pottery.

***(Students are required to follow the instructor’s curriculum. Only work produced from that curriculum will be fired.)***

What You’ll Leave With:

Depending on the disciplinary skill of the student, a student may leave with 7-10 completed pieces of pottery from 25lb bag of clay.

(Students will submit glazed works for final firing on the last class of the session. Students will be contacted, via email, once their pottery has finished firing and available for pick up on a later date)
