Class Size: 5-7
Description: Our 6-week, Intermediate Plates & Platters pottery class is designed for students with some experience on the wheel and all skill levels above, as well as those who have been away from the wheel and might need a refresher. This class will begin with the assumption that all students know the basics of throwing on the pottery wheel (Centering, Pulling a wall) and focus specifically on techniques and methods for throwing different plates and platters. Demonstrations will be given at the beginning of each class and will focus on learning the basics of throwing a plate on the wheel, centering, lifting and shaping methods (throwing), finishing techniques (trimming), and glazing. After demonstrations students will practice that day’s lesson while Reid offers one-on-one feedback and instruction to each student. Come explore and learn as Reid shares his passion and knowledge for the ceramic arts and guides students through the art of creating on the potter's wheel. This class can be taken more than once and all are welcome to join the fun and get their hands dirty!
Supplies: Tuition includes a $75 fee for materials, i.e., clay, tools, and glazes
