STARTS 12/4: 3-Week Wheel Practice with Carmen - 5:30 to 7:30pm

Need additional guidance on wheel skills? Or maybe it's been a while since you've thrown on the wheel and need a refresher. If so, then this class is for you! This class is designed for those 18+ with some wheelthrowing experience. Individuals under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian who must also enroll in the course.

 

Unlike our traditional 4-week beginner courses, these sessions are spent mostly throwing on the wheel so that you focus on improving + refining your throwing skills. We will spend all 3 weeks throwing on the wheel; students can choose to spend the last week either throwing or trimming work.

Registration for this course includes:

• 25lb bag of stoneware clay of your choice (additional clay available for purchase)
• 24/7 studio access throughout the course duration
• Use of community bats + tools during class sessions
• Bisque firing fees for pieces made during class only

 

Registration does not include:

• Bats + tools to use during Open Studio (available for purchase at studio)
• Bisque firing fees for work made during Open Studio
• Glaze cost + firing fees
  • If you would like to finish / glaze your pieces, please reach out to the Studio Manager (info@ashlandclayhouse.com) for options.

 

In preparation for this class, please:

• Bring an apron or wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty / stained
• Ensure you wear short sleeves or sleeves that can easily tuck back and not get in the way
• Tie back long hair so that it does not get caught on clay or the wheel

 

Finished pieces will be available for pick up during Open Hours 2 weeks from the last class and will be held for 2 weeks. Abandoned works will be discarded due to limited storage space. Thanks for understanding!
