You'll be able to customise what you'd like to make throughout the course.
You'll take home (optional) one pottery wheel for the duration of the first 4 weeks to practice what you've learned.
Over the span of the 6 weeks, you'll focus on the fine details of technique on the wheel and off the wheel.
Please note this class is beginner friendly however we only allow previous students who have sat the 'Beginners intro wheel throwing' class to attend. This six week course has a wealth of knowledge for you to absorb and put into practice. This course is aimed to take you from a complete beginner on the wheel to confidently creating refined vessels. And don't let me forget the most appealing thing of all in this 6 week course. We understand that to become potter all it takes is practice and determination. So to help you on your journey we have worked on a little special something not many other studio's offer. Students for the first 4 weeks of the course will take home their own 'rentable' pottery wheel (INCLUSIVE OF PRICING).
This course is covered by NDIS under social inclusivity
