Tuesdays 6pm - 8ish pm November 10 - December 8
Our 4-Week Studio Sampler is the perfect introduction to working with clay - designed for complete beginners or anyone wanting a hands-on taste of the full pottery process.
Over four weeks, you’ll be guided step-by-step through each stage of creating your own ceramic pieces in a supportive studio environment.
Week 1 & 2 – Wheel Throwing (6pm-8:30pm)
Get your hands on the pottery wheel and learn the basics of centering, opening, and pulling clay. You’ll explore foundational techniques while creating simple forms like bowls and cylinders.Week 3 – Trimming & Handles (6pm-8pm)
Once your pieces have dried to “leather hard,” you’ll refine their shape by trimming and smoothing bases, adding detail and balance to your work.Week 4 – Glazing (6pm-8pm)
Bring your pieces to life with colour and finish. In this final session, you’ll learn how to dip glaze your pieces to transform them from raw clay into functional, finished ceramics.
By the end of the course, you’ll have a set of handmade pieces and a solid understanding of the full pottery process from raw clay to kiln-fired results.
No experience needed - just come ready to get messy, experiment, and enjoy the process.
*Clay and all materials included
