6 Week Beginner Wheel Throwing Course - Nov/Dec*
Sundays from 1:30-4:00 pm November 3rd - December 8th with Birch.
To understand the full ceramics journey from fresh clay to finished ware requires multiple studio sessions! Multi-week classes are the best way to learn about and experience all the stages of a pot’s life. This class series is designed to offer an introduction to each step of the process.
Learn the basics of wheel throwing in this classically structured foundational course for beginners and continuing students. After 6 weeks you will be able to prepare your clay, centre it on the wheel, and create basic forms like cups and bowls. Returning students will have the opportunity to sharpen and build upon existing skills. You will also learn how to make handles and trim and glaze your pieces using various glazing and surface decoration techniques.
✷ Small class size of 5 students per course means more hands-on instruction for you! (Many classes have 6-8 students).
✷ Students may access our studio during the course to practice skills, up to 2 hours per week (without instruction).
✷ Includes all supplies: firings, studio glazes (over 25 options), underglazes, use of tools and unlimited clay.
✷ Each student receives a studio guide book to borrow for the duration of the course, that includes infographics and step by step instructions to help remind you of the many steps (useful for drop-in practice sessions) and for studying outside of class.
✷ Age 16+ (please see our after school and teen specific programs, or book a private class for groups of 4+ kids).
All students are required to sign a liability waiver before the start of class.
Missed Classes Policy & Cancellation Policy:
Please ensure you can commit to the entire class sequence at the time of purchasing. Makeup classes are not available. Please review the FAQ/Policy Page on our website for full details as cancellation policies apply.
