Create functional pottery on the wheel in a fun and creative atmosphere. Focus on the foundations of wheel-thrown pottery skills, technique development, trimming, glazing, and decorating. Students will learn to throw their new favorite mug, vase, or sculptural piece as they work on teacher-led projects and practices.
Students are required to follow the instructor’s curriculum. Only work produced from that curriculum will be fired.
No makeup classes will be made available in the case of illness or inclement weather.
