Join us here at The Painter Potter for a fun, intuitive beginner’s workshop that will teach you how to safely and effectively build your skills on the pottery wheel.
THIS WORKSHOP IS 2HOURS 2 DAYS PER WEEK.
Session I Sundays 3-5PM and Wednesdays from 6-8PM
Session II Monday 6-8PM and Thursdays from 6-8PM
IN THIS 2-HOUR BEGINNER’S WORKSHOP YOU WILL

Practice different ways of centering clay and learn what works best for you.
Explore the most effective way for you to “open” the clay - this is the first hole you make in the center of the clay and the beginning of the inside of your pot.
Learn how to "pull your walls”. This is the way we lift the clay into the wall of the pot.
Learn how to compress the rim and bottom of your pot.
Learn how to shape your cup or bowl.
Learn basic Trimming & Glazing.
Learn how to thoroughly clean up and keep the space safe and ready for your next time and for your fellow studio mates.
No experience required - Ages 16 and up only
This class is ideal for folks with zero experience, though to those who've had a few lessons, but need a refresher to improve their technique.
Long nails are not recommended when learning the wheel. You may not be able to fully succeed in this class, if your nails are long, as it is difficult to complete most of the steps in throwing. Please trim nails before first class.
Long hair should be pulled back as well.
Can I reschedule a class if I miss one?
Sorry, if you can’t make it to a session, we’re not able to offer make-up classes, or switcheroos.
