Wheel for Beginner Series: Make Your First Pots (3 wk)

Intended Level: Beginner

3-Week Beginner Wheel Course

If you've ever taken a one day throwing workshop but wondered how they got from your pot to what you picked up? Curious about pottery beyond a one-night experience?

This 3-week course is designed to guide you through every stage of making a ceramic piece — from your very first lump of clay to a finished glazed pot ready to take home.

Over three weeks, you'll throw on the wheel, trim your pieces, and glaze your work while learning how clay transforms at each stage of the process. It's a chance to slow down and experience the full rhythm of pottery making in a welcoming beginner environment.

Rather than focusing on quantity, this course focuses on understanding the process and leaving with a deeper connection to the pieces you make.

Participants typically finish approximately 2–4 handmade pots by the end of the course.

Perfect for:

• absolute beginners
• anyone curious about what happens after the throwing part
• folks wanting a hands-on introduction before committing to a longer class
