This course's small class size allows our instructor to assist students and tailor individual lessons as needed to help you grow your skills with spinning clay. This course meets once a week for 4 weeks. Beginners will learn the basics of learning how to throw on the pottery wheel. We will start by building your confidence in centering to making fully functional pieces like mugs or bowls. We will then spend a session on surface treatments and glazing your favorite pieces. It's not as easy as it looks, but we know you can do it with a little help from our instructors. Our small class size benefits you with more one-on-one attention from the instructor and a chance to get to know each other.
