Class Experience
Our “Intro to Wheel Throwing” foundational pottery class is designed for the beginning ceramicist. This introductory 6-Week Class will provide hands-on instruction covering the fundamentals of wedging clay, centering, opening, pulling up and shaping your pots.
Each week the class curriculum will build upon the previous allowing you to become a better artist in every class, all while having fun learning ceramics!
Please be sure to dress in comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting clay on!

What you'll learn
- You’ll learn about the stages that clay goes through – from wet, to leather-hard, to bone-dry and about the hand-tools used for trimming and creating texture on pots. Kilns and firing stages will be explained and you’ll learn how to decorate and glaze your ceramic work for the final firing.
