Ready to build more confidence on the wheel? Our intermediate pottery course is designed for students who are already comfortable centering clay and throwing basic forms, and are looking to develop stronger technique, consistency, and creative direction.
Over the course of the program, students will continue refining their throwing and hand building skills while exploring more advanced forms and processes. Depending on the goals and experience of the group, projects may include lidded vessels, pouring forms, closed forms, taller pieces, altered shapes, and more intentional trimming and finishing techniques.
This class will also include individualized guidance, giving each student the opportunity to work toward their own personal pottery goals in a supportive studio environment.
