6-Week Wheel Throwing Pottery Course
In this 6-week pottery course, you’ll build a solid foundation in wheel-thrown ceramics. Starting with a simple ball of clay, you’ll learn how to shape it into something beautiful and entirely your own 🙂
We’ll cover all the essentials: wedging, centering (the most gloriously frustrating yet strangely hypnotising process you’ll ever experience), wheel throwing, trimming, and decorating. In the final week, we’ll come together for a glazing session to transform your pieces into fully functional, finished ceramics.
Possible projects include small bowls, tumblers, plant pots, vases, mugs — or something delightfully in between.
