4-Week Pottery Wheel Foundations
Our 4-Week Pottery Wheel Foundations course welcomes beginners and returning students alike, guiding you through the entire arc of the pottery-making process, from your first time centring clay on the wheel to seeing your finished, glazed work come to life.
Week 1 introduces you to the wheel, where you'll learn to centre clay and throw your first forms.
Week 2 brings you back to trim and refine your dried pieces, then throw again.
Week 3 moves into shaping and handle-making alongside trimming, expanding what you can build and how you think about form.
Week 4 is glazing, where your pieces find their colour and character. You'll choose from our 12 beautiful studio glazes before your work heads into the kiln.
All clay, tools, glazes, and firings are included.
We provide unlimited clay throughout the course, and up to 5 pieces are included for firing. Additional pieces can be added for a small fee.
Just bring yourself and a willingness to explore.
We can't wait to welcome you to the studio.
