Beginning Wheel Classes
20 hours of pottery fun with 2-hour classes, and 10 hours of studio practice time!
Join us for a five-session introduction to the potter’s wheel where you’ll learn all about “throwing” simple cups, bowls, and plates.
Also included are 10 hours of practice time, used at your leisure during our open studio hours, or scheduled with one of our studio techs during member-only hours.
In this class we’ll cover:
Basic forms, essential to creating long-term masterpieces
“Trimming” AKA refining your pots
The essentials of firing bisque at cone 04 and glaze at cones 5 & 6 (what the heck does that mean? We’ll teach you!)
Simple glazing methods to help your pots shine! Or matte!
No hidden fees! This class includes all clay, firing, and glazing fees, plus shared shelf space to store your works in progress.
***We are switching to a SIX week format to better serve you!***
As of April 2026, all Beginning Classes will be six weeks, while our Intermediate class will remain five. Our six week series will include more training on throwing, trimming, and surface design, with more flexible time to complete projects in class and make up time if you’ve missed something. Practice hours will stay the same with a 10 hour punch card. There is a small price increase due to the additional teaching time, but we think you’ll find the class to be more valuable and robust.
Thank you!
