This class is designed for the beginner and for those who have taken beginning pottery classes in the past, and will cover the basic and intermediate level working with clay -- this class is mainly focused on wheel-thrown pottery (centering, pulling walls, shaping and rimming) and glazing with some exposures to hand building. We'll give you the basic skills and knowledge so you are ready, if you choose, to become an open studio member. Typically, students take this class more than once before they are comfortable moving on to the next level. Our teaching method is thorough covering each aspect of the potter's wheel step by step with hands-on instructions.

The goal this of class is to give adults an introduction to the art of pottery and the ability to create functional pottery. We want you to learn what it takes to throw a pot, but it's just as important to us that you have a good experience.
