In this multi-day workshop, participants will learn the basics of creating pottery on the wheel! Taught by Amy Smoot, this workshop will walk participants through the basics of prepping clay, throwing their piece, and finishing their work. If you choose our night class, days 1 and 2 will be spent throwing on the wheel, and day 3 will be spent glazing. If you choose our Saturday class, you will have 4 hours of work time on day 1, with a 30 minute break after 2 hours, and then a 2 hour glaze day the next Saturday. Clay and glazes are included, and instructor will supply tools. All experience levels welcome!
