8 Week Advanced Beginner Wheel: Building Intention ( Wednesday 10am-1pm) January 8th - February 26th 

For Advanced Beginner Makers.

Creativity and discipline need each other! The phrase “building intention” in a ceramics context can refer to your technical approach as well as the conceptual underpinnings of your work. This course is for folks who have taken a beginning wheel class and are seeking a space to deepen their practice.  

This goals of this course for beginning wheel graduates are fivefold: 

  1. consistently and efficiently throw a 6” cylinder out of 1.5 pounds of clay
  2. Center up to 3 pounds of clay
  3. Develop ability to throw and shape articulate forms
  4. How to make and execute a glazing plan
  5. How to generate personal and community critique in a safe and constructive way.

Students will also have full access to the studio during open hours for the duration of their 8 Week course (6am-12am All Days).

Shelf space and 25lbs of clay is provided to each student. Tools and other equipment are available at the studio for communal use.
