Summer Classes
5 Week July and 
4 Week August Courses

Beginner to advanced, we'll work with you at your level!
 

5 Week Class Outline:

Week 1

Introduction to Wheel Throwing!

It’s so exciting to throw a pot on the wheel, so let’s get dirty! Your instructor will teach you the basic steps and techniques for throwing bowls & mugs. ​

Work from the first week will not be kept. The focus on week one is learning the steps and not a final result.

Weeks 2, 3 

Trimming & Throwing Class will start with learning about trimming excess clay and cleaning up the bottoms of your new pots.  After your pieces are trimmed, back to throwing some new creations!

Week 4:

Trimming and Finishing

Trim and finish your pieces from week 3 and try out some hand-building.  Everything will be finished by the end of this class and ready to go into the kiln to be fired and ready for glazing next week.

Week 5

Glaze and Finish!

Learning about the fundamentals of glazing and under glazing.

Try out dipping glazing from our selection of gorgeous options! Experiment with different methods and colour combos.

Each class will have about 2 1/2 hrs of working time and then about a half hour of clean-up.

 

1 bag of clay is provided and included in the class fee. 

Additional clay may be purchased at a cost of: $30 for a 10kg bag for new clay. 

$15 for a 5kg bag of reclaimed clay if available.

Unused clay may be forwarded to the next session, but no unfired clay may leave the studio.

 

If you miss a class that you have registered for, we cannot provide a refund or alternative class time for you. 
Please let your instructor know to keep your work wrapped for the following week.
