This one day introductory class is for those who are absolute beginners. You will learn the very basics of throwing on the potter's wheel. This is a fun and quick way to introduce yourself to throwing on the wheel and find out if you would like to pursue a 5 week introductory course. Three pieces will be saved to be bisque fired and glaze fired. Your pieces will be ready for pick up in 2 to 3 weeks or shipped to you for a fee.
