Thursday 4-week wheel throwing with Kim Possible - Term 3 - 6pm

This is a 4-week, wheel throwing class for beginners or new potters. Students will learn to prepare and center clay, throw and trim tumblers, small bowls and side plates using electric pottery wheels.

Much of Kim's work is highly decorative and this class will include an introduction to the sgraffitto surface decoration technique. Together pieces will be simply glazed and available to collect up to 2 weeks after the class finish date.

Bring an apron, a towel, your creative spirit and a willingness to get a little bit dirty!

Thursday evenings for 4 weeks (from 29th August - 26 September) 6pm - 8pm.

PLEASE NOTE** There will be a break on 19 September to allow enough drying time for your pieces before being glazed.

2kg clay, firing costs, slips and glazes are included.

Please remember to stay home if you are unwell. Mask wearing during the class will be optional.
