Classes
If you are ready to take your throwing past mugs and bowls then this is where you belong.
This class takes intro skills and builds on them. We will focus on more controlled throwing on the wheel. You will learn how to throw off the hump, throw a double wall vessel, add lids to your pieces in 3 different ways, and throw pots in multiple sections and attach.
This class is open to your ideas as well. If there is something specific you want to focus on, we can work it in!
Join us for 6 weeks to gain more confidence on the wheel!
