2 hour Throwing Class
Have you always wanted to try the pottery wheel? This is a class geared toward those who have never thrown pottery before, and would like to try it for the first time. This class will not result in a finished product. 4 students per class. Includes instruction, use of wheel, clay, and tools for throwing. $60/student
Throw, Trim, Glaze
In this class, the goal is to work you through the process of making one or two items on the pottery wheel. This will be taught in 3 sections over a 2-3 week period. Starting with a 2 hour throwing class, and a 2 hour trimming class in the same week. We will then bisque any finished work, and have it ready for you to glaze the following week. In this class you will produce finished work to take home. 4 students per class. Includes instruction, use of wheel, clay, tools, glaze, and firing of finished work. $225/student.
Throw, Trim, Raku
Structured with the same idea as the Throw, Trim, Glaze class, but with a Raku firing to finish off your work. Raku is a Japanese, atmospheric firing technique, where you pull the pottery from the kiln while the glaze is in its molten stage, and place it in a reduction chamber- like a metal can, and cover it with combustable material to achieve a variety of colors. You’ll be able to glaze your piece, take part in the Raku firing process, and take your piece home at the end of the night. 4 students per class. Includes instruction, use of wheel, clay, tools, glaze, and the raku firing process. $225/student.
