Book a practice pottery wheel session

Have you tried the pottery wheel before and want to give it another spin? This practice session is a great way to build your throwing skills. You must have taken a wheel class at That Art Place or another place in order to attend this session. This is a self-led session not an instructor led workshop. A brief wheel throwing video will be sent to you upon registration. In this video our instructor will provide an overview of the wheel throwing steps and demonstrate hand positions. You may refer to this video before your session and/or while throwing.

Reserve a 2 hour session below. You will have time to set up, work on the wheel at your own pace and time to clean up.

$30 session fee, includes one finished piece. You must have taken a previous wheel class at That Art Place or have other wheel throwing experience to attend this practice session. Beginners should register for our “Try the Wheel” classes which are instructor led.

How this session works:

  1. Show up on your selected date and throw as many projects as you would like during the relaxed 2 hour session. Each project can be formed from 1 or 2lbs of clay max.

  2. At the end of the session select your favorite piece(s) to keep. One completed piece is included with your registration. Each additional finished piece is $25 and includes the clay used, glazes and two kiln firings. Payment for additional pieces is due at the end of the session.

  3. Leave your finished piece(s) with us. Our staff will trim the bottom and then provide a slow drying process and first kiln firing. We will also dip your pieces in your chosen glaze color

  4. Pick up your piece(s) once we text you that the glaze firing is complete (Approx. 3 weeks)

  5. Love your handmade pieces forever and ever :)

All supplies, wheels, clay, tools, trimming, glazes and kiln firings are provided.
