Intermediate Wheel

8 Weeks

Sundays 10am-1pm

Ready to level-up your wheel-throwing skills? Join our Intermediate Wheel workshop where you will learn techniques used to create bottles, closed forms, and learn how to make larger vessels. Students will also gain familiarity with production and firing techniques.

Students will learn how to better control the clay, make repeatable forms, and start to refine various elements of their pots. In this workshop, you’ll be challenged to throw more advanced forms with confidence.

Class will also include a raku firing!
