Wheel Throwing 101

Fall Class | Registration opens Wednesday, August 6, 2025 12:01 AM EDT

If you have never thrown a pot on the wheel, or if you've tried it in the past and felt like trying it again - this class is for you! The following basic techniques are covered in this course: wedging, centering, opening, pulling, creating and trimming. You will also learn a lot about low fire and high fire glazing. No pressure, no syllabus, no expectations, just a chance to be creative in a judge free environment!

  • Clay is not included in lab fee. Clay is to be purchased through the office. Purchase can be made via email, by phone and/or in person during office hours. Please note specific clay body when placing order. Porcelain clay bodies (257 and 437) are priced at $60 per unit. Non-porcelain clay bodies are priced at $35 per unit. Purchase in advance of class and present receipt to instructor before collecting clay.

    Please note: 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/semester. Only available to students who have previously taken a soda specific class or workshop at CAC.



  • Basic ceramic tools which can be purchased at CAC, aprons or bath towels can be brought to protect clothing and a positive attitude!
