In this intermediate wheel throwing course in Sydney, you will focus on creating lidded vessels, tea pots, serving ware and everyday items for your home. Led by Karina at Klaypots Studio, you are required to have a sufficient understanding of centering clay on your own.

Through this workshop, you will not only enhance your wheel throwing skills but also gain the knowledge to create pieces that reflect your personal style.
Please note the below.
We offer a complimentary glazing class once the course is complete to finish glazing any ceramics that have not been fired by week 6. You will still be trimming in week 5 and in cooler weather or if your pieces are thicker they will take longer than a week to dry before we are able to fire them safely. This process is explained in detail in the course. The complimentary class is not on the same night as the course as we have separate times for this and a booking system for customers.
You must be able to attend all classes, if you are unwell, travelling or unable to attend for whatever reason we do not offer a make up class, you do have the option of paying for an additional class which we run on Monday evenings for 2 hours.
What you'll get
  • a combination of mid fire clay
  • mid fire cone 6 dipping and brush on glazes
  • all the tools you need
  • aprons
  • 10 finished pieces that you make, trim, and glaze.

I am Karina and I am a ceramic artist, business owner and teacher based in Crows Nest on the upper north shore in Sydney. My passion for ceramics started out as a hobby in 2016 and over the last two years has really grown into a small business with a focus on handmade small batch ceramics and tailor-made events for clay lovers and learners.
I have a passion for teaching and making. I'm a very social person and I love meeting new people, teaching others how to create ceramics and explore clay, hosting events and collaborating with other businesses in fun and creative ways.
I hope that I can teach you to make something beautiful.
