Earth, water, and your first thrown bowl.
A five-hour meditative session at the wheel. Centre, open and pull your first vessel with patient guidance from our resident ceramicist.
We'll fire your piece after class — pick it up a week later, glazed and ready for your table.
Four skills you'll take home.
Wedging the clay
Prepare the clay for the wheel with the right tension and moisture.
Centring
The most important skill — find balance before you throw.
Opening & pulling
Create the form from a spinning lump of earth.
Trim, sign, fire
Finish your bowl, sign the bottom, and we’ll fire it for pickup.
Just bring yourself.
