In this introductory class, you will learn the foundational skills for working with clay on the potter’s wheel. Through demonstrations, instructor guidance, and studio work time, you will learn how to throw your own ready-to-use functional pottery. Everyone will be able to complete items from start to finish!
Each student receives 25 lbs of clay for use during class. Additional clay can be purchased as needed. All skill levels are welcome. Tools and glazes are provided in the studio.
