What you'll do
Have you ever wanted to learn wheel throwing but don't know where to begin? Join this beginner-friendly course with Jumping Creek Designs and learn the beautiful art of wheel throwing!
This hands-on course will give you an overview of the possibilities of creating with clay. It will cover all the basic skills needed for wheel throwing, trimming and glazing.
Designed for people with little or no prior experience as well as intermediate potters who want to learn more.
Over eight weeks, this course will cover:
- the properties of clay and how to prepare and store your clay
- steps of wheel-throwing, centring clay on the wheel, creating vessels on the wheel, trimming the bases of your vessels
- surface treatments for your vessels
- adding handles and sprigs (decoration) to your vessels
- an overview of drying and firing processes
- glazing of your vessels
By the end of the eight weeks, you can expect to have approximately eight to twelve medium sized vessels. This will be fired ready for collection two to three weeks after the last class, where firing is an additional cost of nine dollars per kilo per piece.
Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 6 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
