Beginners Pottery Throwing Wheel Class

Come and experience a warm welcome in my studio where you'll be greeted with a cup of tea or coffee, regularly provided throughout the session. At which point I will introduce myself as well as give you a brief overview of my studio and the tools you'll be using during the session.

I will then demonstrate how to use the wheel and show you the basic techniques you'll need to create your very own bowl. After the demonstration, it's your turn! With Bex's guidance, you'll take turns using the wheel to create your own unique bowl. For those more confident and adventurous, you can go on to create your very own mug to go with it.

When you're finished, I will glaze and fire your bowl alongside your other wonderful creations, and your finished piece will be ready for collection in 4-6 weeks. If you prefer, you can have it posted to you for a small additional fee payable on the day. This workshop offers a relaxed and supportive environment to explore pottery!

By the end of your three-hour class, students will be able to keep up to six of your wonderful creations, which will be glazed and fired in a colour of your choice from soft yellow to deep blue, luscious green to chocolate brown. Examples of which will be provided on the day.

On the day

A couple of things you need to be aware of is, firstly: if participants can arrive 15 mins early so that I can show you around my studio and get you settled in that would be fantastic. I also recommend you wear clothing you don't mind getting dirty. As due to the nature of clay it's not uncommon to come out of my workshops slightly messy. Also, please make sure all long hair is tied back, as well as wearing enclosed footwear as well as removing any jewellery before the class starts.
