Wheel Throwing and Hand-building (all levels)

Working with clay offers an endless range of possibilities. Learn wheel throwing and handbuilding in our classes. Students create simple and complex ceramic forms, including pinch, slab, coil, sculpting/modeling. Various throwing projects, glazing and surface techniques will be explored. Students will learn to use studio equipment including the slab roller, extruder and wheel to make mugs, bowls, plates, teapots and more! A small group size ensures individual guidance.

**Open Studio practice time between sessions is available only to students pre-registered for the upcoming term or up-to-date monthly members (experienced potters only).

Firing Fees:

Current firing fees for enrolled adult students are 6-cents/cubic inch and cover bisque AND glaze firing, plus all materials EXCEPT underglazes, which are an additional charge (when used) of $1.00/piece.

Trial Class:

Want to try one class? Please call to see if there is room. Trial Rate is $60.

For all classes, please make sure to bring:

  • An apron (or wear clothing you don’t mind dirtying). Making pottery is messy business.
  • A towel you don’t mind dirtying (if you plan to throw).
  • Pottery-Making Tools (8-piece sets are available for purchase at your first class for $15.)
  • If you have it, the studio is always in need of dry cleaner’s clothing plastic covers. We wrap our drying projects in plastic. If you don’t have this DON’T WORRY. We will have some on hand for you.
