October Wheel Throwing

October Wheel Throwing

October Wheel Throwing - Using the potter’s wheel to make functional objects can be a very rewarding experience.  This class will cover the basics of working on the potter’s wheel.  If you have never tried this before, please expect some difficulty in the initial stages.  The focus will be to learn centering and then to pull shapes such as bowls (ex. berry bowls, soup bowls, colander, cereal bowls, etc) and cylinders (ex. Mugs, tumblers, sippers – based on the learning curve).  The second week of class will be trimming and practicing more shapes.  Glazing will take place the final week.  Some experience may be necessary. 

Class Meets:

October 15th, 17th, 22nd, 24th, 29th, and 31st

The Resident Artist Series in Clay is a program designed for students of all levels. Topics change monthly involving both wheel throwing and hand building techniques.  Class tuition includes one 25lb bag of clay, Open Studio on the day of class, glazing, and firing for projects made during class.  For more information, please contact Frank Vickery at This email address is being protected from spambots.
