This class has four sessions over four weeks. 

Are you eager to expand your throwing skills or dive deeper into the world of clay? 

In this four-week class, you'll learn some techniques and new tools to broaden your knowledge base. Shaping on the wheel and by hand as well as some introductions to glazing and decor are all things that may be covered. Refine your techniques and take your pottery to the next level with further instructed time. All skill levels welcome; this class is open for folks with some experience that feel they still need some support and instruction as well as people who are completely new to clay and throwing on a wheel. Students will receive a bag of clay with class registration. Finished work will have a small firing cost.
