Description

Learn or expand your knowledge of wheel thrown ceramics in this fun and
inclusive 5-week class. Beginners will be introduced to clay and
wheel-throwing techniques. Students will learn the technique of
throwing, centering, and making cylinders, bowls, and mugs. We will move
through the process of centering, trimming, pulling & attaching
handles, and glazing. Intermediate and advanced students will be guided
through a technique of their choice: lidded vessels, plates, and
platters, pitchers and spouts, closed forms, or planters.
