Learn to throw on the potter’s wheel in this entry-level evening class! Open to absolute beginners and those with some experience, this evening class will teach you how to centre clay and throw simple bowl and mug forms. During the course, our highly skilled Diploma students will be on hand to support you in creating pots you’ll be proud of.

Running over six weeks, this block of evening classes will focus on throwing with stoneware clay. At the end of the course, we will fire your 6 best pots in our college Gas Kiln. The pots will be glazed in a beautiful selection of house glazes.

You will make for 5 weeks, and glaze your creations in week 6 on 3rd June.
