Throwing on the wheel for beginners in three sessions:
Learn the basic techniques for working on the pottery wheel, from a lump of clay to a finished glazed mug, bowl, or plate. This course is perfect for beginners trying the wheel for the first time. Together, you’ll learn the fundamentals of pottery, create your first creative accents, and dive into the exciting world of ceramics.
The course is structured as follows:
Day 1: Clay preparation and first throwing on the wheel.
Day 2: Trimming the pieces and shaping the foot of the thrown vessels.
Day 3: Glazing the dried and fired pieces.
The glazing session usually takes place 2–3 weeks after the first two course days. The sessions build on each other – attendance at all three is required to achieve a result.
You can pick up your finished pieces about three weeks after the glazing session.
The first 1.5 kg of clay is included in the course price; after that, firing costs for participants are €15 per kilo.
