The Ceramic Journey - Intermediate/Advanced Throwing
Take your pottery skills to the next level in this 10-week ceramics class designed for students who have completed at least one beginning wheel-throwing course.
Building on foundational techniques, we'll focus on throwing consistent, matching forms while refining control, accuracy, and confidence on the wheel.
Throughout the session, students will learn essential finishing techniques, including trimming foot rings and pulling and attaching handles to create functional, well-crafted pottery.
With individualized instruction and plenty of studio practice, this class is the perfect opportunity to strengthen your skills, develop consistency, and create beautiful ceramic pieces.
