Adult Throwing Class

Our classes combine students of varying skill levels. We find that this helps both the less skilled students, who learn from the more advanced students as well as the teacher, and encourages the more advanced students to articulate what, how and why they do what they do. Beginners will receive an introduction to basic throwing techniques: centering clay, forming cylinders, bowls and plate forms. Glazing and surface treatment also covered.

For those who are comfortable throwing basic shapes, classes will focus on constructing more complex forms. Teapots, pitchers, covered jars and casseroles etc. will be explored. Students also work on mastering the more technical aspects of glazing and firing. Advanced students are also eligible for ADVANCED TOPIC seminars when they are offered. 

Adult clay class fees include 25 lbs. of clay, glaze materials and open classroom time
