Exploring Pottery on the Wheel at Night

Annex Buildings • 5240-5244 Magazine St. New OrleansLA  70115 Organized by New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts

About this event

Develop a passion for the wheel in our 6-week pottery class that is designed for beginners with no experience throwing on the pottery wheel as well as those who have been away from the wheel and might need a refresher. Students will learn ceramics techniques while expressing themselves through clay to create functional, unique, and personal pieces such as cups, bowls, and more! Demonstrations will be given at the beginning of each class and will focus on learning the basics of preparing clay for the wheel, centering, lifting and shaping methods (throwing), finishing techniques (trimming), and glazing. After demonstrations students will practice that day’s lesson while Reid offers one-on-one feedback and instruction to each student. Come explore and learn as Reid shares his passion and knowledge for the ceramic arts and guides students through the art of wheel throwing. This class can be taken more than once and all are welcome to join the fun and get their hands dirty! Supplies: There is a $75 fee for materials, i.e., clay, tools, and glazes Prerequisites: None
