Intro to Wheel Throwing:
Adults (ages 14+):

Our six week workshops will introduce students to the wonderful world of clay. Learning basic wheel-throwing skills will be the focus of this workshop. Students will also get a chance to use slump and hump molds to create a hand-building with clay project. During the final class, students will learn how to use different glazes to decorate their creations.

Cost: $150...(less 5% if you sign up with a friend and less another 5% if you've taken a 6 week wheel throwing class before). Includes instruction, 20lbs of clay, the bisque firings, and unlimited use of the wheels during the 6 week time period. Students will be charged for the glaze firings based on the size of their pots. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required. If you can't make all 6 weeks in a row, that's O.K because we offer makeup sessions.
