What will I learn?

This beginner pottery course offers straightforward, step-by-step instructions to produce reliable, useful pots from beginning to end. You will learn to choose clay, knead it, and prepare it properly, then try throwing cups and bowls on the wheel along with basic hand-formed trays and plates. Gain skills in trimming, decorating surfaces, testing and applying glazes, and planning kiln firings, while following key safety rules for the workshop and kiln to achieve steady, confident outcomes.
