What we'll cover across the 4 weeks:

Weeks one and two: The basics of wheel throwing - with plenty of emphasis on hands-on practise on the wheels. We'll start with throwing cylinders and then learn how to alter these to make different shapes like bowls and vases.

Week three: Selection of 4 pots to take forward for firing. (the ones that don't make it can be recycled back into clay for future use). Trimming, tidying, decoration and adjustments of selected pots for bisque firing.

Week four: Glazing of our bisque fired pots.

Finished pots will be ready for collection approximately 2-3 weeks after the end of the course. We will email you when they are ready.

The cost of the course is: £175 per person payable at the time of booking.

Covid FAQ's:

As a large shared studio space we want to ensure that our studio members and those coming for lessons feel comfortable and to do all we can to minimise the risk of Covid spread as we move into the Autumn and Winter months. Our current covid policy is those that attend for lessons will:

1. Have no cold or flu symptoms and not be testing positive for Covid.

2. Have not been in close contact with anyone who has tested positive for Covid in the past 7 days.

As the situation evolves with Covid these requirements may change.
