Friday Mornings Advanced Pottery
Fridays, 9:30-12:30, March 21 – May 21, NO CLASS April 11, April 18
That’s 8 weeks of “pottery club!” This course is for anyone who has taken at least two wheel thrownpottery courses. We will focus on wheel-thrown pottery. We’ll still start with cylinders – they’re thebasis of everything, and we’ll practice throwing taller and thinner. We’ll practice shaping our pots withmore intention. We’ll try using more clay, practicing centering and using all the clay from the bottomup. You’ll also grow your trimming skills to create lighter, more even pots. We’ll do this with the basicpottery forms: cylinder, bowl, vase. There will also be room to try more complex things, and alsomany opportunities to help shape your curriculum. Decorating techniques will include coloured slips,underglaze and coloured glazes. You will create a body of work, likely 20+ pieces, which will all beglazed and fired, to be picked up a few weeks after the last class.
This course is ideal for students who can center 1.5lbs reliably, even if you still feel like a beginner(clay keeps us humble), as well as for those of us who have been practicing for years, because wecan always continue to hone our skills. There will be a range of skill levels within the class and youwill work and learn together. There’s always tea and sometimes there’s food!
