Workshop will demonstrate and teach skills for throwing clay on the wheel.
Aimed at beginners, the class can also benefit those
needing to refresh their skills.
Students will gain understanding of the qualities of clay, stages of the drying cycle, and the use of throwing tools and equipment. In addition, through demonstration and hands-on practice, students will gain working knowledge of the potter’s wheel including how to center, throw, shape and trim and attach. Along with instruction students will have ample time to practice and receive real-time coaching.
After three, 3-hour sessions, students will be ready to work independently on the wheel in a clay studio and produce work ready for bisque firing and glazing.
