Intro Pottery Wheel Class
What to Expect
This workshop is perfect for anyone who has never tried pottery and is curious to explore the craft. In this 90-minute pottery wheel class, you’ll dive right into hands-on ceramic work, learning essential techniques like centering, shaping, and forming your own pieces. While we’ll primarily focus on making bowls, other creative forms will be introduced for those who’d like a bit more of a challenge. Pricing Options: 1️⃣ $45 Standard Option: Includes a clear glazing coat applied by our staff and all of your pieces fired and ready for pickup in 3 weeks. This is the simplest option if you prefer not to glaze your work yourself. 2️⃣ $60 Glazing Class Option: If you’d like to customize your pieces with a special glaze design, you can book a separate glazing session within 30 days of your workshop date. During this follow-up class, you’ll learn how to glaze your pieces by hand. We’ll explain how to schedule this glazing session when you attend the workshop. Please note: glazing session must be at least one week after your wheel-throwing class to allow for drying time. Finished pieces will be held for 60 days after they’re ready before being discarded if not picked up. 💡 Why Small Classes Matter: Our wheel classes are designed with beginners in mind and capped at 13 students to ensure personalized attention and hands-on instruction. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to try something new, you’ll receive the guidance you need to confidently shape your first piece. We can’t wait to have you join us! ◡̈
