Adult Wheel Throwing - $560
12-week session | 3-hours per session

Instructor: John Wilson
Open to all skill-levels, adults only

This 12-week session is a fun way to get your hands dirty and learn proper throwing techniques! You will start with the fundamental basics of wheel throwing techniques such as preparing the clay, centering, opening, and throwing. You will also learn trimming, firing, and glazing. 

If you’re already familiar with the wheel, this is an opportunity for you to reconnect with clay, refine your skills, and even learn new techniques from an experienced potter and instructor. This class is for all skill levels – beginners, intermediate and advanced potters will learn (or relearn) from a variety of weekly demonstrations then be given time to apply those techniques to your own work. This is a fun, hands-on, and relaxing class that also allows for ample time to get creative and practice your craft! Bring your ideas to class and we can fine tune your aesthetics.
