Take your time and go deeper in our new and highly requested 10-week Wheel Throwing Course. Designed for beginners and returning potters alike, this extended format gives you space to build confidence on the potter’s wheel while refining technique, form, and surface decoration. With live demos, guided practice, and dedicated open work days, you’ll learn how to center, open and pull walls on the pottery wheel. In subsequent weeks, you will learn to trim, modify and glaze your pieces.

This course is ideal for students who want an immersive course experience, more time on the wheel, and the ability to move works through multiple firing cycles. Small class sizes ensure personalized instruction and hands-on support every step of the way.

Tuesdays | 5:30–7:30pm
Up to 8 finished pieces per student
