Ever want to learn to throw on the potter's wheel but cannot commit to a class? In this 2-hour workshop, a Clayworks teaching artist will teach you the basics of wheel throwing. Toward the end of the workshop, you choose your favorite pieces and the glaze color they will be finished in. We will take care of the drying and firing of your pots. Attend alone, or bring a friend, family member, or a date! Your pottery will be food, dishwasher and microwave safe.

Please note: Wheel throwing is a skill that takes time to develop, and is never perfected on the first try. Clayworks cannot guarantee the quality of finished pieces, as results depend on your work during the workshop. Glaze color cannot be guaranteed and refunds/credits will not be issued based on dissatisfaction with finished pieces. That said, we invite you to join us for a fun, hands-on creative experience, imperfections and all!
