Teen Wheel
Winter Class | Registration opens Friday, November 8, 2024 12:00 AM EST
Foundations studio is a supportive, self-leveled, step-by-step environment to learn the basics of wheel-throwing pottery. Built for beginners to orient them to working in a community space, helping artists to express themselves through the work, Foundations is designed to support you, providing as much structure as you need behind the wheel as you grow your skills. Relaxed, encouraging, Foundations is here to help you find your flow, focus, and grow through play with clay.
- Clay is not included in the supply fee. Clay purchased with your registration needs to be pick up in this semester. Clay puchases do not carry over from one semester to the next when purchased with the class. Clay can be purchased in the office as needed throughout the semester.
Students who wish to fire work in the soda kiln and are currently registered in a class that is not soda kiln specific can do so for an additional $20 fee per semester. You will be sent instructions with specifics for firing in the Soda Kiln at the beginning of the semester. Please call or stop by the office to sign up.
- A basic tool kit is suggested, but we will have tools to share. Wear play clothes, we get messy.
