Explore the art of making ceramics using the pottery wheel and hand building techniques. This is a workshop completely tailored for students new or experienced with pottery to utilize our full studio and instructor knowledge to make their ideas come to life.

We'll begin each day with beginner wheel instruction and work through various altering techniques and additions of slabs, handles, and spouts to create an assortment of pottery forms you can actually use! This workshop is a fantastic way to dip your toe into the world of ceramics and build the confidence to use the studio independently during open studio hours! If you've taken wheel classes with us before, this class is a great option for continued practice.

Students are welcome to take this class multiple times to continue honing their skills with instructor support.

Wonky Pot Wkshop

Focusing on thrown vessels with a twist, literally! Sometimes it can be hard to make a perfectly uniform piece on the wheel. Even when that is achieved it can sometimes be missing something. So, let's embrace the “wonky” pot! We will be focusing on altering thrown forms to make intentional dents, twists, waves, dimples and other textures. We will use all sorts of tools, and unconventional items like, rope, stamps, sticks, and much more to make some awesome wonky pots!!! **Students must attend an intro to wheel class prior to attending this Level 2 course.
