Four weeks. Plenty of clay. No experience required.
If you’ve tried the wheel and wanted more—or you’ve never touched clay and would rather jump right in—this class is built to give you the time and instruction to actually learn.
Over four weeks, we’ll work through the foundations of wheel throwing step by step. You’ll practice centering, opening, pulling walls, shaping forms, trimming, and finishing your work while getting plenty of hands-on time at the wheel.
You are not expected to show up already knowing how to make pottery. That would sort of defeat the point.
