About this Event
Mmmm, nothing like a morning brew or tea…. in your own custom mug! This 3-hour instructor led class will cover the basics of throwing on the pottery wheel. With all materials included, participants can expect to make 1-2 custom mugs which they can then choose a color for, so staff may glaze them. This is a great class for those wanting to try their hand at the wheel or rediscover a past passion for clay. Finished objects can be taken home and enjoyed with a cozy fresh brew of tea, coffee, hot chocolate or cider 2-3 weeks after the class.
Get ready for 3 full hours of creative fun with clay!
In this 10-part pop-up series, adults and teens 12 years and up, of any skill level, are invited to participate in one of our 3-hour, instructor-led classes covering the foundations of working with clay. Themed projects will vary from week to week and may be wheel or hand-building based. Students may enroll in one themed class at a time or may enroll in multiple individual classes. Completed projects are fired and glazed by staff with your choice of color and are usually ready for pick up in 2-3 weeks.
