This class will provide an introduction to the JAC’s Ceramics Studio and the basics of working on the potter’s wheel. Over the five week class, we will cover the essential elements of completing ceramic objects on the wheel including wedging, throwing, trimming, glazing and firing. There will be an emphasis on the necessary timing of each step as well as good working habits within our shared studio. Whether you want to learn the wheel for the first time, brush up on your skills, or learn more advanced techniques, this class is for you! Demonstrations and personal guidance will be provided for all skill levels.
All materials are provided for this class, however, students must purchase any additional clay directly from the JAC to use in the studio The cost is $45 per 25 lb bag and includes all glazing and firing service fees. Any clay purchased elsewhere cannot be fired at JAC. Unlimited access to the ceramics studio during Open Studio Hours is included for the duration of the class.
