BEGINNER POTTERY - WHEEL WORK LEVEL I (14YRS +)
INSTRUCTORS - KARLIE KING (BA, MA), CARLA WILSON (BA), monika Tan & sabine wecker (mfa, bfa)

If you have never sat down at a pottery wheel before but have always wanted to give it a try, this is the class for you. Instructors will teach participants the basics of wheel throwing techniques as well as how to prepare clay, use and care for tools. Each class will begin with instruction and demonstration, then students will spend time practicing what they have learned. This class focuses on the process of creating pieces on the wheel, so the emphasis each class is on skills rather than a finished product. Some of the completed pieces created in class will be glazed with high fire glaze. Classes are small, with only 8 students, which allows for maximum one on one time with the instructors. All clay, glaze, and firing of projects are included in the cost of this class.
