Curious to experience the full pottery process from start to finish?

Whether you’re looking for a creative outing with friends or a little time just for yourself – this three-part intensive course gives you a hands-on introduction to all the key techniques of wheel throwing. You’ll throw, trim and glaze your own ceramic pieces – and walk away with something both beautiful and handmade.

What to expect:

• Day 1: Throwing (3 hrs) You’ll learn how to center and shape clay on the wheel – and create your first small pieces like vases, cups or bowls.
• Day 2: Trimming (2 hrs) Once your pieces have dried to leather-hard, you’ll refine them by trimming and shaping elegant foot rings. You can also add hand-pulled handles if you’d like. Afterwards, your work will be bisque fired at 960°C.
• Day 3: Glazing (2,5 hrs) One week later, you’ll return to decorate your ceramics with high-quality, colorful stoneware glazes. We then fire them at 1,200°C – making them dishwasher-safe, microwave-safe, and ready to use.
