Description
Join our exciting pottery class focused on wheel throwing! In this two-hour session, you will have the opportunity to learn and practice the art of creating beautiful ceramic pieces on a potter’s wheel. With a maximum of eight students per class, you can expect an intimate and personalised experience. Our student to teach ratio is 1:4, so if the class is full there will be two teachers 🙂
The class begins with a demonstration to familiarise you with the techniques and tools involved. Once you have gained an understanding of the process, you’ll be able to unleash your creativity and make your very own cylindrical bowls or vases. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to explore various shapes and designs that reflect your unique style.
One of the advantages of our small class size is the ample time available to each student. This ensures that you can work at your own pace and receive individual attention from the instructor. Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience in pottery, this class will provide a supportive environment for you to enhance your skills and create pottery pieces that you can be proud of.
Join us and discover the joy of working with clay as you shape your imagination into tangible art forms.
Your 3 favourite pieces from the workshop will be finished, glazed and ready for collection around 4-5 weeks after the class. Shipping can be arranged at your expense, generally around $15.00.
Venue: Elizabeth Bell Ceramics FYANSFORD – Site 10, 100 Lower Paper Mills Rd, Fyansford
