For students who have completed Wheel 1 or who have a basic grasp of centering. This four-week class focuses on developing bowl forms through continued practice on the wheel, with demonstrations and guidance provided throughout. The class will explore a range of bowl shapes and include instruction on making functional colanders with handles. Returning students are welcome to build on previous projects or work independently with instructor support.
Course format:
• 4 weekly sessions with instructor (2 hours each)
• Approx. 5 weeks of studio access (includes 7 days into the following month to finish glazing)
• 7-day-a-week open-studio access (outside of wheel-throwing class hours)
Included with your registration:
• Approximately 12 lbs of clay
• Glazes and firing services (additional fees apply for pieces larger than 6” in any direction)
• Studio tools provided during class sessions
• Access to open studio time for practice between classes
Tool Policy Update:
Due to recent changes in import taxes, we are no longer able to offer a free set of tools with class registration. Tools will still be available for use during class sessions, but not during open studio hours. We offer quality tool kits for sale at the studio, or students may bring their own tools purchased from an art supply store or online.
Open Studio Hours:
Monday–Sunday, 9 am–9 pm (excluding class times and a 1-hour closure before and after each class)
What to bring:
Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty and closed-toe shoes.
Long hair should be tied back and short nails are recommended for wheel work.
Students are encouraged to bring their own apron and hand towel.
Age requirement:
This class is designed for adults. Minors ages 14–17 are welcome to participate with parent or guardian permission. A waiver must be signed in person by a parent or legal guardian on the first day of class during check-in.
A Note About the Process:
At Makers & Clay, the focus is on the journey rather than chasing a perfect end result. Pottery is learned through repetition, patience, and practice, and even experienced potters make the same forms many times before they get them right. Because pottery involves many variables, pieces can sometimes come out differently than planned. While specific results can’t be guaranteed, classes are meant to introduce people to working with clay or offer experienced makers a chance to reconnect with their practice or learn new techniques. The hope is that the experience sparks joy, curiosity, and continued making.
