Clay- Wheel Throwing

Wheel Try It

by

This class is ideal for beginners who are excited to learn the basics of wheel throwing in a low-stakes environment, and a great precursor to a multi-week course. A Studio staff member will provide a demonstration at the beginning of class and offer guidance as students practice at their own wheels. Fees cover the cost of class and clay for up to two completed pieces, including glazing and firing. Anyone ages 8 and up are welcome, but children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Completed pieces will be fired and ready for pickup from the Clay Studio within 2 weeks after your class. We do not ship artwork, and any pieces not picked up within 60 days will be recycled.

*Note: Pieces will look different after firing. Taking photos of your piece and glaze selection after throwing and adding a signature can help identify your work when it’s time for pickup.

Daytime Intermediate Wheel Throwing Fall Session 2

by

Our Intermediate Wheel Throwing class is designed for students with a foundational understanding of wheel-throwing who are ready to advance their skills. This weekly course delves into more complex techniques, refining throwing methods, and exploring decorative elements. Students will enhance their proficiency through various projects. Each session combines demonstrations, hands-on practice, and personalized feedback from our experienced instructor, fostering a supportive and creative learning environment to help students elevate their pottery skills. This class is not intended for beginner potters. Please check our calendar to find a more appropriate course.

Note on firing: All work will be fired and ready for pick up in the Kimball Art Center 7-14 days after your class. We do not ship class work. If artwork is not picked up after 60 days it will be recycled. *Since artwork may look different after firing, make your pottery or sculpture recognizable by carving a signature into your piece. 

The $50 material fee includes a bag of clay, with options including Rods Bod, Death Valley, and Stoney White. Porcelain is not included. Students wishing to use porcelain can get their material fee refunded and purchase porcelain separately at the front desk.
