Throwing & Beyond - 6 Weeks - Evenings
Friday October 7 - November 14 (No class Nov 7)
6:00-9:00pm

Let's practice our throwing, trimming, and beyond! We'll perfect each step of the process and even try out different forms for the curious.

  • Learn and practice multiple days on the potter’s wheel, practicing the basics, and turning them into various different shapes and forms
  • Trim your work and learn techniques to add handles, spouts and embellishments
  • Experiment making altered forms on the wheel, such as ovals and squares
  • Decorate your pieces with glaze combinations and handpainting with underglaze

Class Schedule

Week 1-2: Throwing
We will jump on the wheel and practice making bowls and cylinders, that can be turned into just about anything!

Week 3: Trimming
We will learn how to trim various shapes and how to add handles, spouts and decoration.

Week 4: Throwing
Experiment with different shapes on the wheel, or take on a new project of your choice.

Finishing week! Trim, assemble, and clean up all your work to be ready for our final Glaze Day!

[We take a 1 week break in order to prepare for the glaze class]

Week 6: Glaze
