Join our 5-week pottery wheel course for intermediate throwers. Refine skills, explore new shapes like vases, jugs, and jars with lids, and learn new throwing and trimming techniques. Take home 6-10 pieces.

Each 2-hour session includes demonstrations and personalised guidance in small groups of up to 6 people.

We use stoneware clay and custom in-house glazes. Items are food and dishwasher safe when glazed properly.

Commitment to all five sessions required. Quarterly dates—check availability and book online below.

Course Schedule:

Week 1: Reintroduction to throwing. Learn how to collar in your cylinder to create a bottleneck/vase form.

Week 2: Trim the pieces thrown in the week prior using a chuck (a tool used to trim forms with a narrow rim).

Week 3: Learn how to throw a closed form or a ‘yoyo jar’.

Week 4: Trim your jars thrown in the week prior using a suction technique and experiment with using decorative slip (coloured clay) to finish your pieces.

Week 5: Learn how to glaze your pottery wares and experiment with layering glazes and masking.
