Pottery workshop: Throwing

This course is open to all abilities, whether you're a novice or an experienced potter looking to expand your skills on the wheel. 

Our head potter Karl will teach you the basics of pottery throwing, starting with throwing basic cylinders and then developing your skills to help you make more complicated forms, including bowls and mugs, as well as turning, firing, and glazing techniques. 

Please be aware that this is quite a physical workshop and requires extensive use of lower back, wrist, finger, arm and shoulder muscles.
