Alchemy Pottery Classes - Important Information
Learn how to throw on the potter’s wheel or handbuild unique creations! Beginners will learn to make basic forms like cylinders, bowls, and mugs on the wheel or if you’re handbuilding you’ll learn to coil build a bowl, slab build a mug, explore function, texture and color. Using colored slips and glaze, inlay, texture, and carving you will learn various ways to finish your work. Students with experience will get one-on-one instruction and help in developing their own personal projects.
