6-Week Intermediate Wheel Throwing Course
6-Week Intermediate Wheel Throwing Course
This 6-week intermediate course is designed for experienced students who already have strong wheel-throwing skills and want to refine their technique, work on more complex forms, and explore surface and glazing methods.
This is not a beginner course. Basic throwing skills such as centering and pulling will not be taught. Students must already be able to center clay confidently and throw simple forms independently.
The weekly plan may be slightly adjusted each season based on the overall experience level and interests of the group.
