**No Class on 11/25** This Wheel Throwing class is perfect for beginners or intermediate participants who have some prior experience. The teacher provides ongoing demonstrations and continuous instruction as well as time to practice honing your skills on the pottery wheel. Participants will learn how to center the clay, form basic shapes like bowls and cups, learn trimming, lidded forms, attaching handles and apply colorful glazes. Intermediate students will work with larger amounts of clay and work toward throwing 6" or higher (pitchers, vases, goblets, tumblers, etc). Pieces are ready for pickup after 2-3 weeks from when they are completed. Clay & glazing is included in the tuition. No outside clay is permitted. Communal tools are provided or you may bring your own tools if desired. Studio expectations include cleanup of potter's wheel, bucket and tools at the end of each class. Please sign all work or it will be recycled. This class is open to ages 10 and up. All missed classes should book a drop-in time slot for make-ups unless there is availability in another night of classes. After the 8th week, students may select a drop-in time to return and trim or glaze free of charge. No new works created after the 8th week unless you are paying for another drop-in. Missed classes: You may schedule a "Drop-In" free of charge if you miss a week of class. Drop-Ins do not include instruction. You may have up to 2 of these per 8-week session. Refunds: Once you have started the course, we are unable to issue a refund, but we will try to place you into a different day or time if possible.
