We’re excited to announce our Level 2 class, designed for those who have enjoyed our one-hour wheel experience through a class, party, or date night. This new 1 ½ hour course will help you build on your skills and deepen your understanding of pottery. Join us to take your creativity to the next level!

This class will focus on:

Refining Shapes:

• Opening the clay and pulling walls to create more symmetrical forms.
• Enhancing form and design elements.
  
• Techniques for creating consistent shapes and thicknesses.

Class Structure

• Warm-up: Brief discussion of the day's goals and a quick review of techniques.
• Demonstration: Instructor demonstrates new techniques or skills.
• Practice Time: Students practice under the instructor's guidance, with individual feedback.

Objectives

• Develop more control and precision on the wheel.
• Create more complex and aesthetically refined pieces.
• Gain confidence in handling and finishing ceramic works.
• Expand creative expression through various techniques.

1. Dress Comfortably: Wear comfortable clothes such as pants, leggings, or shorts (no skirts, please). Any clay will wash out of your clothes.
2. Trim Your Nails: If possible, trim your fingernails. It's not mandatory, but it can make the experience easier for you. If you have long, beautiful nails, we have a workaround so you can still create items on the wheel.
3. Remove Jewelry: Please remove watches, rings, and bracelets. You may want to leave these items at home or in your vehicle for safekeeping.
4. Open Mind: Come to the class with an open mind and a specific idea of what you would like to create. This is a one and a half hour class to build on previous experience.

** YOU MUST HAVE PREVIOUSLY PARTICIPATED IN THE ONE-HOUR WHEEL EXPERIENCE AND FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE BASIC STEPS IN THE THROWING PROCESS. WE WILL NOT BE EXTENSIVELY REVIEWING THE BASIC STEPS.
