This four-week intermediate workshop is designed for
potters who can quickly and accurately center clay and confidently pull
a consistent cylinder. The ability to throw to gauge—matching forms to a
specific size or weight—will be helpful but is not required; it’s a skill we’ll introduce and reinforce throughout the course to help you create a cohesive dinner set.
Under
the guidance of three skilled instructors, you’ll develop precision,
design unity, and versatility while making a complete dinnerware
collection.
• Week 1 – Bowls with Jen: Fine-tune your
throwing techniques to produce well-balanced bowls, perfect for soups,
salads, or sides.
• Week 2 – Plates with Missy: Explore
both wheel-throwing and handbuilding techniques for plates, expanding
your creative possibilities and adding diversity to your set.
• Week 3 – Cups with Alyssa: Throw cups with even walls and well-proportioned shapes that complement your set.
• Week 4 – Tumblers & Handles with Alyssa: Learn to throw
tumblers and pull comfortable, well-fitted handles to transform cups
into functional mugs.
Students will be responsible for purchasing their clay of choice through the studio.
Bonus:
Enrollment in this workshop includes unlimited open studio access for
the month, allowing you to practice, refine, and finish your pieces
outside of class time.
Class Size: Minimum of 2
students required for the class to run. Maximum of 8 students. If the
class reaches maximum enrollment, there is a strong possibility that all
instructors will be present each week for additional support and
feedback.
By the end, you’ll have a personalized, functional dinnerware collection that reflects both your skill and artistic style.
