Kids Saturday Wheel Throwing

Class | Registration closed 9/14/2024

This course offers an introduction to basic wheel techniques. Through demonstration and practice, students will learn how to center clay and throw simple shapes on the wheel. Hand building is also offered as an addition or alternative to the wheel. Students may choose hand building techniques of pinch, coil and slab to create their own pieces. Different methods will be used to decorate the pieces before and after a bisque firing. All pieces will be finished by glazing.

  • No Class 9/28
    • Please wear old clothes (sport pants wash well!) and/or bring an old T-shirt as a cover up.
    • A $20 fee for 25 lbs of clay is included in the price of the class. Glaze and firing are also included in the class fee. Additional clay can be purchased at the same fee if needed during the session.
