T3/2026 Beginner Wheel Throwing Class

Service Description

Starting Thursday 30th July, join our tutor Jolie Simpson for four fun and focused evening sessions designed to build your skills and confidence on the pottery wheel. Perfect for beginners, this course will guide you through the foundations of wheel throwing in a supportive, small-group environment. Across the first few weeks, you’ll practice essential techniques—centering, pulling, and shaping clay—while learning to problem-solve and refine your approach. Don’t worry if your early creations don’t survive—it’s all part of the process! As the course progresses, you’ll move on to creating pieces ready for bisque firing and learn the basics of glazing. Firing of up to 6 pieces is included as part of the course. Completing a 4-week class is a great way to start to build muscle memory and prepare you for future wheel throwing and learning.
