Introduction to Wheel Throwing with Jim

Class Dates: Saturdays, June 6, 13, 20, 27, July 11, 18, 25, & August 1

Have you always wanted to try throwing on the potter’s wheel? This 8-week class will focus on all the beginning techniques to center and form pots on the wheel. You will learn how to throw, shape, trim, and glaze your pots. With step-by-step instruction you’ll learn how to throw mugs and bowls and vases, transforming a simple ball of clay into a functional piece of pottery. You’ll learn from Jim Alworth, a MFA Ceramics grad at SIU Carbondale, with his step-by-step approach to pottery making.

No Experience required. Wear clothes you don't mind getting clay on (it washes out) and closed toed shoes. Clay and all tools are provided by Paducah School of Art and Design
