What will I learn?

The Beginner Ceramics Course provides straightforward, step-by-step instructions to make reliable, useful pottery from beginning to end. You will learn how to choose clay, wedge it, and prepare it, then try throwing cups and bowls on the wheel plus simple hand-built trays and dishes. You will gain skills in trimming, decorating surfaces, testing and applying glazes, and planning kiln firings, all while learning key safety rules for the studio and kiln to get confident, consistent outcomes.
