Intermediate wheel students will build skills and fluency with clay by exploring the foundations of the pottery wheel with a variety of fun exercises and loose assignments. The class will begin with an overview of the basics (wedging, centering, pulling, etc) to build a solid foundation and help give students confidence to take on more complex forms. Students will learn, in depth, about the process of turning clay into ceramic including drying stages and moisture management, firing processes, decorating techniques, fixing mistakes, planning forward, and more.

Advanced Wheel Throwing is a class designed for those ready to take their pottery to the next level by developing their unique voice in clay. Using a mix of fun exercises, thoughtful assignments, and thorough demonstrations, students will learn to hone their throwing skills and sharpen their critical thinking. Students should already have extensive knowledge of throwing on the pottery wheel. This class will use high fire stoneware and conclude with a cone 10 gas reduction firing.
