Feb 6-April 3 from 5-7:45pm, March 6th break for firing.  8 WEEKS

Class will provide structured lessons focused on building upon the basic wheel throwing skills. This is a novice/ intermediate level instruction.  Students will learn how to “Get rid of the beginner bottom bulge!", make a personalized 'makers mark' stamp, learn pottery vocabulary,  and explore making different  forms. 

We will practice common ‘pot repair’ techniques at the leather hard and dry hard stage.  

 Finally, two weeks will be devoted to glazing and decorating techniques.  We will review pot preparations for  dipping glazing,  practice glazing techniques (e.g. pouring/ piping), how to use mason stains and underglaze (transfers/ pencils). 

 Previous throwing & glazing experience is needed. Class is for people who want to advance beyond the beginner throwing/glazing level.
