Throwing with Intent 6-week course
Throwing with Intent 6-week course
A new course starts October 2024
6 weekly workshops in a small group for potters at intermediate skill level.
Over the 6 weeks you will learn how to make functional objects on the wheel, which you will be able to take home and be proud to use on a daily basis. Skills you will learn include design and form, intermediate throwing skills, turning, handle making and glazing methods and techniques.
This is not an absolute beginners’ course. if you are new to throwing you will need to take an Introduction to Throwing course or an equivalent first and put in some hours of practice before applying for this course. We run a 6-week Learn to Throw course which would get you off to a flying start before tackling this course.
£210 per person, to cover tuition and all materials used during the course, including clay, studio glazes, biscuit and glaze firings.
Tuesday evenings 6.30 - 9.00pm 22nd October - 26 November 2024
Tutor: Karen Groves
