Friday Throwdown: Clay Mugs on the Wheel

Friday night throwdown! Clay Mugs on the Wheel

Instructor: Shelbie Colton

In this 10-part series, students of any skill level are invited to participate in one or more 3-hour, instructor lead classes covering the foundations of working with clay. Themed projects will vary from week to week and may be wheel or hand-building based. Students may enroll in one themed class at a time or may enroll in multiple individual classes. Any students holding VAI flex passes may participate if there is space available.

Join us for the second of 10 drop-in sessions in ceramics. This instructor lead class will cover how to make a mug on the potter’s wheel.  Participants can expect to make 1-2 mugs which they can choose a glaze for so staff may finish the objects for them. This is a great class for those wanting to try their hand at the wheel or rediscover a past passion for clay.  Finished objects can be picked up 2-3 weeks after the class. 

Materials Included 

VAI Flex Pass Holders: class counts for 4 hours on your VAI Flex Pass to cover materials fee.
