Ready to see if you would like to learn how to throw on the potter's wheel? This three week class goes in depth into one specific form on the potters wheel to give students a taste of wheel throwing! Students will receive a three week beginner friendly boot camp on either cylinders, bowls, or plates/flat forms. Check the class dates to see which form you'd like to try out first!
Class includes a 25lb bag of clay, a tool kit rental, and all of your firing costs will be covered. Students are also STRONGLY encouraged to come in outside of class to practice as much as they like. Additional clay, glazes, or tools may be purchased at a discount in our retail area. This class is three consecutive weeks with an additional glaze class you can sign up for at your own convenience.
Why would you do three weeks instead of six? This class makes sense if any of the following describes you:
- You already know how to throw, you just want a quick refresher
- You're a beginner without the time commitment for a 6 week
- You are curious about throwing but not ready to commit to a full six week class
- You signed up for a six week class in the future, but you are so super excited to get started and you can not wait!!!!!
- You want to join the studio, but would like to have a guide to help you learn the ropes
- You have PLENTY of time to practice (without practice, a three week class is just a chance to be frustrated)
Why would a six week class be better?
- Six weeks helps you develop muscle memory
- Six weeks helps you process some of the initial information and put it into practice
- Six weeks gives you the time to make a weekly date for yourself to throw
