Running every Wednesday for 5 weeks from your chosen start date

This course is an ideal way to introduce yourself to the Potters Wheel and have some fun. The first three sessions will be focused on the basics of throwing on the wheel, beginning with how to centre and pull a cylinder. Moving on to how to stretch the clay into bowls and other more complex forms. On the fourth session, you will begin to turn your work from the previous sessions, and the final week you will be able to glaze your work.

Each attendee has their own dedicated potters wheel, there is a maximum of 6 people in each class. Expect to keep anywhere between 6-8 pieces, depending on what happens when you are throwing.

The courses are suitable for beginners.

Total cost of the course is £200, tools, materials, firing, tea and coffee are all included.
