Throwing 6-Week Course

This course is a perfect introduction to working on the wheel.

Designed for people looking for a supportive session to explore all the basics of making on the wheel with a little extra time to really hone your skills.

You’ll start with throwing basic cylinders and then developing your skills to help you make more complicated forms, including bowls and cups.

Over six weeks you will dive into all the fundamentals whilst working with a smooth stoneware clay. From wedging and prepping your clay, to creating and decorating.

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