When beginning the first session on the pottery wheel, you will make pieces such as bowls, small cylinder vases and mug shapes. As you continue with classes you will progress into more difficult and challenging forms. The wheel is relaxing, peaceful and lots of fun. It takes more time and patience, but is definately worth the rewards as you develop your wheel throwing skills.

Hand building in clay is working off the wheel. Most commonly we instruct projects with sheets of clay that we run through a machine called a slab roller. Hand building is great fun and gives you the opportunity to create very interesting, unique items that have lots of personality and you can get very artistic and imaginative with your work. We instruct a different project weekly for 6 weeks using patterns that we have created and applying various techniques. Hand building is for those that want to learn quickly and you see the results every class.
*In addition to class fees, students will need to purchase a basic pottery tool kit for the cost of $17.95 and clay as needed, which is about $13 for 25 lbs. (There is no sales tax on classes). Some students enjoy taking double classes and getting a $30 discount.
Studio Membership can be purchased monthly or by the hour for using the studio at your convenience during business hours.
Mon, Tue, Wed: 10:00-9:00 pmThu, Fri, Sat: 10:00-5:00 pm
