WORKSHOP: Throwing Taller & Thinner Pots

Workshop: Throwing Taller & Thinner PotteryReady to take your wheel-throwing skills to new heights—literally? In this workshop, you’ll learn how to throw taller, thinner forms without losing control, elegance, or stability. Designed for intermediate potters, this session will give you the confidence and techniques to push your limits on the wheel.

You’ll master:
