  Working with the Wheel

  Learn to use the potters wheel in our new Pottery Lab while you make your own one-of-a-kind drinking vessel.  No previous experience is required for this class, but some knowledge in ceramics could be beneficial. 

  In this class you will learn how to:

  • work with a potters wheel
  • center your clay
  • throw a vessel
  • add a foot to the bottom of your pot
  • attach a handle
  • get your pottery ready for firing
  • glaze and treat the surface
  • plus, you'll get a general overview of how to use an electric kiln

  At the end of this class you will walk away with either the perfect gift or your new favorite mug!

  This is a four week class starting April 30 through May 21
