Description
Do you have the basics of throwing down and are looking to go to the next level? If you are comfortable consistently centering and moving 2 to 3 pounds of clay, this intermediate throwing class is designed for you.
This class is a bit less structured than others. Katie works with each student and help them reach their goals for the 8 week session. There is a demo each week, and students work toward their own goals based on the demonstrations.
The class includes 25 lbs. of clay, your glazes and firings, and 12 hours of Open Studio (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). Additional Open Studio hours may be purchased for $10/hour for enrolled students.
Please bring your throwing tools to class.
*Last day of class is an 1-hour longer than previous classes due to more time needed for glazing your work.
