All-Level Pottery Wheel – Beginner and Up: Wednesday evenings, April 2–May 7, 6:00–8:00 pm
Six 2-hour sessions (12 hours total), Wednesday evenings, April 2–May 7, 6:00–8:00 pm
Have you always wanted to try your hand at throwing pottery on the wheel and never had a chance? Have you spent some time on the wheel but want an opportunity to gain confidence and hone your skills? Over the course of six 2-hour sessions, we will focus on setting achievable goals and making them into a reality!
The newest potters will learn the basics of making classic vessels like cups and bowls. Those with some experience will focus on gaining confidence with the important skills of centering, pulling up the walls, creating consistent cylinders and more. Students who are already able to create simple wares on their own will instead concentrate on design and consistency, deciding with the teacher what challenges they wish to take on. We’ll also look at trimming and decoration, as well as how to add handles to our creations.
