Service Description
This is a four-week course for mixed level participants to advance their skills on the pottery wheel. Elements of hand-building may also be included. *please note that this particular 4 week class will be skipping the week of Thanksgiving. * This class is designed for complete beginners but we also have an agenda for intermediate participants to go at their own pace! You will be able to take home some pieces of your very own handmade pottery by the end of the series. In this course you will learn different techniques and approaches to throwing on the wheel and hand-building; including centering, pulling, trimming, surface decoration, and glazing. The price includes four days of instruction (one day per week) and one additional day of open studio time per week where you can practice outside of class (up to three hours/day). Make sure to create an account on our website to book your open studio time- multiple time slots are available throughout the week.
