Description
Do you watch the Pottery Throw Down or ghost and think, I want to try that! Well, you can
with these taster throwing sessions in which you will explore the techniques of throwing on
a wheel.
During the 3 week course (2 weeks teaching and one week to practice) you will learn how to wedge and prepare balls of clay and then have
lots of time to practice the basics of throwing, centring your clay, pulling and then shaping
clay to make cylinders and bowls. You will then learn how to trim and make handles and finally glazing. Your pieces will be bisque fired and then final firing after which you can amaze your friends and family with your own collection of pottery.
