About this Event
LEVEL 1/FUN: Beginners intro half day class is to help get you started on your pottery journey. During the course of the afternoon you will be given an introduction to various pottery techniques including throwing on the wheel and hand building. But, it's also a fun way of spending an afternoon or great as a gift!
Adults 18+ only
• You will learn the basics of throwing & also looking at hand building techniques such as coiling, pinching or slab work.
• This is designed for those who are not sure what course they want to do and are keen to get an insight as to what it's like to throw on the wheel and hand build before committing to a longer course and also great as a one-off fun class or gift.
• Also great as a one-off experience.
• After this short class you can specialise and book onto our 8 week beginners throwing course (please note that you will not be able to go straight onto the intermediate course).
• Alternatively, if you want to learn more about both the wheel and hand building working with specific projects and additional techniques, you can book onto our 10 week combined course to become a better all rounder.
• Split in two over the course of the afternoon, you will start with the wheel at
1-3pm, have a short break & then finish with some hand building 3.30-5.30pm.
