Learn the basics of pottery in a 3-week class, designed to be a snapshot of the whole pottery process:

Learn the basics of throwing on a wheel
Build pots and sculptures using slab and coil
Learn how to glaze using multiple techniques

No experience is necessary, and we encourage all skill levels to join! Available for 15 years+, or with the accompaniment of a guardian.

New potter's can expect to bring home about 5-7 pieces. Limited spaces available, with each class accommodating up to 5 students.

Class Structure

Each week we will explore a new technique in order to try out all the basics and learn the whole process.

Week 1: Handbuilding
Learn how to use templates to make a textured mug and tray from slab.

Week 2: Throwing
We will jump on the wheel and learn how to make bowls, jugs, vases and maybe even some mugs on the potter's wheel!

[We take a 1 week break in order to prepare for the glaze class]

Week 3: Glaze and Decorate
Learn how to dip glazes to create unique combinations.

When it's all said and done, it takes about 2 weeks until all your pieces are out of the kiln and ready for pickup!
