6 Week Throwing Foundations

Build confidence on the pottery wheel in a supportive, creative studio environment. Over six weekly sessions, you’ll learn the core skills of wheel-thrown ceramics and create your own set of pieces.

You’ll cover: centering, pulling and shaping, throwing cylinders and bowls, trimming for a clean finish, plus altering forms and adding handles. Once your favourite pieces are fired, we'll walk you through various glaze options to complete your pieces.

Perfect for: complete beginners, improvers wanting to strengthen technique, and anyone craving mindful, hands-on creativity.
