Wheel-Throwing
The Creative Arts Studio’s clay room features state-of-the-art potter’s wheels where you can learn the art of wheel throwing. Experience the satisfaction of transforming
your project from mud to masterpiece. You can rent a potter’s wheel
by the hour or take a workshop.
Studio Rules
Potter’s wheels are motorized equipment.
To maintain the quality of firings and prevent kiln ‘accidents’
the Creative Arts Studio will fire only clay purchased and worked on in
our studio.
Hourly Rentals
$25 includes 1.5 hours at one of our potter’s wheels or wedging table,
2.5 pounds of clay and the bisque (cone 04) firing. Regular studio fees
will apply for painting, glazing and the second (cone 06) firing.
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.

Kids ages 10+ are welcome to take this class with an adult.
Time: Wednesday session starts July 23rd, from 6:30-8:30pm and runs for 6 weeks.
