4 Week Wheel-throwing Course

Have you ever wanted to learn how to create your own pottery? This 4-week course is the first step to your wheel throwing journey.

Whether you are hoping to progress to sell pottery in the Deloraine Pottery Hub, join our community or just try something new, this four-week course is perfect for beginners. It will allow you to experience what it is like to be a potter as you learn how to throw clay on the pottery wheel.

Over the 4-week course, you will focus on developing the basic techniques of wheel throwing with the guidance and assistance from an experienced tutor. Throughout the duration of the course, you will learn to centre clay, throw tall cylinders, cups, bowls, plates, trim pots and basic glazing.

Each week you will attend a 2-hour class which will focus on a new technique in the pottery process.

By the end of this course, you will not only have made four or more pieces of pottery, but you will also discover if you like working with clay.

What you’ll get

All materials including clay and bisque and glaze firing are included in cost.

What to Wear/ bring

Wear old clothes that you don’t mind getting messy, and covered footwear (not thongs or sandals). If you cut your fingernails short, it will be helpful for you. If you can, remove jewellery from fingers and wrists as the clay may cause damage.
