2.5 hours Class size 1 to 2     label £90

On this wheel throwing taster course you will get your hands straight into a bag of clay and get down to throwing a pot on the wheel. Your tutor will guide through the key steps of throwing on the wheel which include wedging, centering, pulling up, opening out and finally free forming the clay with your bare hands.

This workshop will give you an authentic experience of what it's like to learn the craft of pottery in a fun and supportive environment. The objective of the session is the enjoyment of learning a new skill and the making itself rather than having a refined finished outcome.


Knowledge required
No previous experience required.
 
What you'll get
All materials and tools to make two pots, that can be collected from the studio 3 weeks after the workshop or posted to your door for a fee of £6.00.

You will be taught in Rachel Cox’s modern studio with the latest ceramic tools and equipment in a small group of up to 2 students. Small groups ensure greater individual focus from your teacher and higher levels of student and teacher group engagement. You will have access to a range of clays, slips and glazes and an apron will be provided. Your pottery will be fired twice in an electric kiln up to temperatures of 1260 degrees. There is a bike lock up and private parking onsite available to students.
What to bring
Bring yourself along and a thirst for learning all things pottery!
