6 Week Wheel Beginner Throwing Class

Ready to get your hands dirty and make some pottery?  In 6 weeks you will learn the fundamentals of pottery from start to finish. Whether you are a beginner who has never touched clay or someone looking to brush up on their skills this class is perfect for you and will feature hands on instruction. This class mainly focuses on mugs and bowls but we welcome you to be as creative as you want. We will go over throwing, trimming, carving/attaching, handles, decorating and glazing and more. This class will be instructed by Meghan Angelis, owner of Salty Ceramics. It will be once a week for 2 hours for 6 weeks on the specific day you signed up for. The cost of this series is $250 per person and includes 1 block of 25 pounds of brown speckled clay. Additional clay will be available for purchase however you typically only need the one block. This includes use of shared community tools, glaze materials, and kiln firings. You'll also receive shelf space for storing your in-progress work.  **Please bring a medium to large Tupperware container for reclaim clay. This is for all your scraps that we will reuse so no clay is wasted.  This class is for ages 15 and up.  If you would like additional time in the studio, we have open studio times: Monday 10-7pm Tuesday 10-8pm Wednesday 10-8pm Thursday 10-8pm Friday 10-7pm Saturday 10-7pm Studio time is included in the price of the class. When you come in for open studio time there will be people to ask questions but no instruction. You can also come early on your class day if you prefer.  All Sales are final. No refunds or transferring to other classes. If you miss a week you will not be refunded for that day but we do offer one make up day of your choosing. You are also welcome to come to open studio time. The last 2 classes of the sessions will be for finishing up your pieces and glazing.  Please note: Some pieces will not make it through the firings. This happens in pottery and especially with beginners. Salty Ceramics is not liable for any broken or lost pieces. Make sure to sign everything. Wheel throwing does take some physical strength. Mainly upper body. You might be sore after the class so please be aware.
