Embark on a creative journey and immerse yourself in the world of pottery with this comprehensive six-week wheel throwing course for beginners.
This semi-private course is limited to a small group of just four participants, ensuring you receive full attention and guidance from our skilled instructor. Whether you're an absolute novice or have dabbled in clay before, this course is designed to provide you with the foundational skills and techniques needed to create beautiful pottery on the potter's wheel.
In this course, you will learn about:
  • Kneading clay

  • Making bowls and simple form vessels
  • Building confidence and understanding around throwing
Join us for an exciting exploration of clay, form and artistic expression.

What you'll get
All the ceramic pieces (bisque-fired) that you make during the course, as well as expert guidance and a range of new skills.
Knowledge required
Perfect for beginners.
What to bring
Please bring your own apron and a towel, wear comfy clothes that you don't mind getting some clay on, and leave all precious jewellery at home so it doesn’t get damaged. Please also ensure your fingernails are trimmed short and tidy, as this will affect your ability to work with clay.
