ONE-Day WHEEL THROWING (AGES 12 AND UP)
Give Wheel Throwing a Try!
So you've always wanted to try a wheel throwing class... Now is your chance! This class is only one day, for 2.5 hours, so that you can give it a try!
Details: All inclusive one-day class: all tools, apron, and instruction will be provided, and we will trim, glaze & fire your piece(s) for you afterwards. $105
You will be allowed to keep up to 2 pieces, and you will be notified when they are ready for pick up in approximately 3-4 weeks after your class!
If you do this class and realize that you LOVE wheel throwing, please get on our waiting list for the 6-week, more intensive, classes.
6 WEEK BEGINNER WHEEL THROWING (ADULTS, AGES 16+)
We currently are working off of a waiting list for our Multi-Week Wheel Classes. If you would like to be notified when there are available spots, please email us by clicking on the link below. Also, please indicate in your email if you have ever taken a One-Day Wheel Class.
Details: 6-week Beginner Wheel Class, all inclusive (tools, clay, firing, glazing & some additional open studio time*) $375
These classes will be the same day/time every week for six weeks and Mondays are open studio time* (from 1pm to 8pm) for anyone enrolled in a class. Classes are kept small so space is limited!
Currently, classes for beginner wheel throwing are being offered on:
- Thursday afternoon 11am-2pm
- Saturday morning 10am-1pm
This class is for BEGINNERS (those with little or no experience, or those re-learning the wheel after an extended absence from throwing). No production work or advanced potters will be allowed in this class.
*Open studio (on Mondays) is for PRACTICE only. This is not time for additional instruction or to produce new pieces. This time is for practicing the techniques that you learned in class, so you will not be allowed to keep anything new produced during Open Studio.
Intermediate & advanced WHEEL THROWING (ADULTS, AGES 16+)
We do offer Advanced Beginner & Intermediate/Advanced Wheel Classes, but we have decided to offer these classes to people who have taken our Beginner Wheel Classes.
If you have previous wheel experience from another studio, it is best if you start with our Beginner Wheel Class so that we can assess your level and place you accordingly. Please feel free to contact us with any questions about this!
Youth Wheel throwing (ages 11-16)
After-School Wheel Classes & Summer Clay Camps
These classes are designed to get our youth engaged in the art of "throwing" pottery on the wheel, and are designed for students with any amount of experience with clay (no experience is required):
After School Wheel Classes: 6 weeks, $250. All tools, materials, glazing, firings (up to 12 lbs), etc. are included. LIMITED SEATING: ONLY 4 SPOTS PER CLASS!
Our Summer Wheel Camp is Monday-Friday, $250. All tools, materials, glazing, firings (up to 12 lbs), etc. are included. LIMITED SEATING: ONLY 8 SPOTS PER CLASS!
- Wheel throwing is a highly technical and engaging activity that takes practice and repetition to master.
- The format of the class will always concentrate on teaching (& mastering) the fundamentals so that each student will be able to learn the foundations needed for more complex wheel work later on.
- We pride ourselves on providing a supportive community environment while our students build their confidence working with clay on the wheel!
- Students will be able to glaze their own pieces in the last class
